[Community_garden] flluorescent bulbs

[Diana Settar]

Hi Diana,
I tried out a few different full-spectrum bulbs on my dwarf citrus trees
this winter, with little success. I found a grow-bulb called the "Ott
Light". Not sure how they differ, in terms of light waves, but my trees
responded with new growth within a week!

Cheers,
*Diana*
