Can you grow two plants in a small area with a 100W Flood light?

So If I decided to use one in a small area what will happen I mean I figured they would grow because they give off a red spectrum.

You need to find out exactly what kind of light you have. A flood light and a HPS are not the same thing. If you have a 150w HPS you can do a small grow with it. If they are halogen or incandescent flood lights then they are a waste of time. :peace:

WORD! The term "Floodlight" only infers that the light source projects itself outward in a relatively wide beam, as opposed to a "Spotlight". It says nothing about what "type" of light the source actually is - LED, HID, CFL, regular incandescent, Halogen or whatever!

Only read the first 2 posts... But normally flood lights arent HiD (MH/HPS, in fact im almost positive they arent). The flood lights ive seen are halogen and arent good for growing bud AT ALL.

Can u find out by looking up the brand what type of light u really have?

You people have woken-up a thread that is over five years old. The OP hasn't posted on RIU in over a year.
