    Default Stop gap light for seedlings

    Is there a specific type of bulb I can get for a simple household bayonet fitment? Or is a normal household energy saver ok for a week or so?
    Just need to get a light on a couple of babies until they go into their more permanent home next week. They are really stretching in the sunlight.

    You can pick up A 19W/100W LED House bulb, and put them 2" from plants, and they will be good for A few weeks. JMO

    I Have used a desk lamp in the past, with a 13w LED bulb. Had that over some seedlings for about 3 weeks. Worked fine.
