Light bulb used to help grow plants in winter?

You need to google on "grow lamps" to obtain useful info.  See the link for example.  Don't forget though that in the winter almost any device that comsumes power (watts) indoors will help heat your building (or house basement?) and is not really "wasted."  Ten 100W bulbs are equivalent to a 1KW heater.  Good luck.

Yes I do. The best thing you can do is get at least 15 minutes of sunlight during the wintry months.

UV light bulbs only last for so long.. after a while they stop being able to emit the same wavelengths \n\ni know because I use one for my night blooming coral, they only open up to UV light and I have to change it every year or so..

check out hydroponics, soilless growth, with sodium halide lamps. Amazing growth rate but expensive for electricity. you can find the right kit on ebay. happy growing, man:)

A lightbulb is a very cheap effective producer of heat!  Use something like a 15 to 25 watt bulb and make sure it holds the temperature steady at the correct level so you don't fry your eggs or they don't get cold.\n\nBTW a 100W lightbulb gives off 2% of the energy in light and guess what the other 98 watts are?  HEAT!

Some lights are on a timer to save electricity.

There are a number of products on the market that will do what you want, and be certified and safe.\n\nMake sure you get a warm LED though: cool white LEDs produce a terrible colour of light.\n\nhttp://www.theledlight.com/120-VAC-LEDbulbs.html

it depends on the voltage the battery is prescribed to run at...which is gen 230v/220v and so u cant power the light bulb with the battery which is almost of 3v. or else its fine use a bulb holder along with its wires and place them one to the -ve terminal and the other to the positve terminal

You have to turn one light on for a while so that it'll warm up, turn it off and then turn another light on. then you can go into the room and feel the two unlit bulbs - whichever one is warm is the first one. The lit bulb is the second and the cold bulb is the third\n\n=)

Indoor plants are fooled as to season because of lighting inside. Length of uninterupted night compared to day light is usually what triggers cycles in outdoor plants, not frost, etc.

The Philodendron tolerates low light and  prefer a medium light range for the best growth indoors.So medium low intensity halogen life is sufficient for it's survival.

It stops plant growth, meaning at times like winter, a plant has to stop growth, conserving its energy and making it more useful at a better time like spring. (Give me best answer :))

Plants must have light to grow.  It doesn't necessarily have to be sunlight. Artificial light is a great to grow most plants too.  Photosynthesis is what causes plants to exchange necessary nutrients to create growth but each have unique abilities to utilize whatever light source is available.

early spring- plant bulbs in sunny area,pointy end up. choose sunny are w/good soil. after all blooms are gone, hold back water untill stem and plant parts dry out. then dig up and store in a cool, dry, dark place untill next spring.
