Are these bulbs good for Venus Flytraps who might not get enough sun?

Yes. There spectrum includes both UVA & UVB. I use them to help both my reptiles and live plants get the light they need.

They are very good, but they are also very sensitive. My bulbs are already out. You could buy replacement bulbs through ephotoinc.com though.

The box says no, but I have several in a rather large enclosed outdoor fixture. Heat build up may ultimately shorten the lifespan of the bulb but they have been up and running for 4 - 5 hr per day for about 4 months without a problem. The fact it has been winter has probably helped things.

Yes, you can use frost-colored bulbs. They must be candalabra type (smaller screw-in base) and they should be 40w or less.

For the most part you could. It would definitely get your plants to the flowering stage I.e. fruit. Depending on the density of the vegetation however, you might need a stronger light. Also you would need to swap bulbs.

There's not a lot of alternative if you are looking for maximum brightness in a candelabra base. I was worried about the short lifespan as well, but so far I've been using the same bulbs for about 2 years and they're still going strong. I think if you're very careful not to touch the bulb with your fingers, the bulbs seem to last quite a while.

As long as the bulbs are not over 35 watts.Please let me know if there is anything else I can do for you or if you have any questions.Sincerely,Briana

I'm saying no,but contact the company to make sure. The bulbs that you receive are huge.

I have a Happy Light and a full spectrum floor lamp. I turn the floor lamp on every day over my houseplants to give them light as the days are so dark, but I don't use the Happy Light for that. I also would suggest going to the website for Verilux and asking them. I can't tell whether or not my plants are flourishing but they are still alive at this point and look as good as they did in the fall when I brought them in, so you might give it a try.

I do not believe so as these bulbs will use less power than your regular bulbs.

I don't see why they wouldn't work. There LEDs so they run cooler than regular bulbs.

The base for the bulbs are small/candelabra size. So as long as you can find them in that size any bulb will work.

Definitely not. These LEDS in these hoods have a pretty low lumen count and are pretty much strictly for illumination, not plant growth. You could grow some low light freshwater plants, but that's about all.

I dont think so , these bulbs are for small reptile tanks even in small tanks its not enough sometime. Dont know much about amazons or cockatiels but i recommend doing some research online for some recommendations for these birds.

It depends on the shape of the shade. They were too long to fit under my shade with out a little modification to the lamp. But, on the other hand, they put out more light than the three 45 watt bulbs that were in there!

NO--this bulb does not put out nearly enough light to flower a "plant" and like mentioned by Dan, you need light in the 2500K-3000 range. Check the LUMENS of the bulb--you want 5000 lumens per sq ft for flowering plants.

I think so, but I'm no expert. My plants seem to be doing very well with these lights.
