In all seriousness, to get us back on topic, DO NOT use your bug zapper to grow your plant. I would use a minimum of 4 23 or 26 watt(100watt equiv) to grow your plants. for a quick and easy DIY build, go to DO IT center or HOME DEPOT or LOWES or OSH

With this you will be able to run 4 100wequiv CFL's and be able to get a good grow going for starters.
WHILE at these stores (do it center is having a sale, along with the salvation army where u can get 2 CFL bulbs for your house, NOT YOUR GROWBOX, for 89cents. I suggest replacing 7 bulbs in your house with these. Then you electric bill should go down, not up, during ur growing duration. Im trashed so if non of that made sense, send me a pm or just reply. do yo thingggg icebox

I don't think it has enough power to really grow a plant to be honest. I'm not very experienced but from what I've been reading you need around 100 watts for a single plant.

+rep for giving it all you can.
Lights are one piece of a grow that can not be skimped on. sure some setups are
more costly than others but you will have to provide the correct spectrum for your hopes to bloom.
