What type of grow light?

tgplp · March 13, 2011

I need to order another grow light from somewhere, because I am growing way more tomatoes this year and need more room for my next batch of seedlings. I really have no idea where to start! I looked through some older posts and Im not sure what hot vs. Cold lights are, or what color means, and lumens and how all of that affects tomato seedlings. Please help me understand!!can you reccomend a good, cheap light? Right now I have a fluorescent light, but I need to get a better light. My tomatoes grow sloooooow. Where can buy one? Thanks!
