If you can get a nice big 65 watt or higher CFL and keep it close to plants it will help. ideally you want HID lights though and not fluoro or cfl.

I'm guessing most'll tell ya cfl's, but I've had plenty of luck with plain old fluro's (shoplights)
Basically, you'll need quite a few cfl's per plant, as I understand it.
