# Very specific question here but I had an idea lol. Has anyone tried…

_Publié par Alyssa le 2024-06-11_

Very specific question here but I had an idea lol. Has anyone tried putting grow light bulbs in their ceiling recessed lighting? I have a pretty dark space in my home (15 feet from an east facing window) that I keep the recessed light on most of the day and I feel that energy could be put to better use by growing a light loving plant lol. Any thoughts or advice welcome of course! 💚☺️

Lots of plant shops I frequent do this!

Oh yeah haha, I never thought of that, makes complete sense though, I wonder what bulb would do the job

I have seen a few grow light bulbs that would fit most ceiling lights or lamps on sale at Walmart. Im willing to bet that Amazon would also sale some.

Cool! I’ll look into that thanks

I know this is an old comment but I came here looking for this exact question. Did putting grow lightbulbs in your ceiling work? What bulbs worked? So curious as I hate to have lamps everywhere when I just need supplemental light for plants several feet from a west-facing window.
