INDOOR GARDENING LIGHTS
Solar Powered Indoor Plant Lamp?

I am planning on trying to make a circuit that will provide light to my indoor vegetable garden. I want it to be able to charge via sunlight during the day then used at night. I want it to power CFL’s for the light source. Actually which light bulbs/whatever would be best for an indoor garden?

Thanks in advance! :]
Thanks to those who are answering my gardening help, but I need help with making a electronic circuit, similar to a joule thief, to power a CFL bulb but charging during the day via solar energy.

You can use Compact fluorescent light bulb. It have more light than full-size fluorescent grow lights. They are also a popular choice for home gardeners because they are inexpensive, available in many common stores, and can be used in regular light sockets. They are especially good for shelf gardening because their low heat allows you to place lights on shelves that are stacked on top of each other. Smaller plants and seedlings can thrive in a well-designed indoor garden lit with fluorescent grow lights.

Solar powered indoor lighting lamp is a great way to reduce electrical bills while saving energy. Because it relies on the sun for power, this lighting lamp doesn’t create greenhouse gas emissions nor contribute to the depletion of the natural resources of the planet.
