Bloom Light SupplementI am a one plant windowsill grower, but having trouble getting enough light for bloom due to cloudy days. I have a three prong red/Blue LED light off Amazon, Wakyme, that is not cutting it. Would this lamp work? Two bulbs. I will have to suspend it from a clothes rack.Setup. Lighting
