Does anyone have experience with growing orchids using the "new to me"
energy efficient compact full spectrum fluorescent grow bulbs and fixtures.
These are used in special fixtures similar to sodium and metal halide
fixtures and are not the regular fluorescent bulbs.


I use ordinary fluorescent tubes, but I have seen the compacts. One
big drawback to them is their initial cost. The high wattage bulbs are
very expensive, even more so than MH or HPS.

The LED grow lights are news to me.
