Hi recently set up a grow which became ruined due to a rat problem near the flats where I live.
I was previously growing under a Uv LED panel
However I now want to set up two plants in a stand-alone wardrobe. (Stealth grow)
Could I use this bulb ( will attach pictures ) alongside my 200w LED panel in the wardrobe or do u think there would be no purpose for it at all?
open to any opinions thanks in advance

Yes you can...but itll be pants...a bit more wattage needed if you want the extra lighting to do something worth while - STELTHY :leaf:

What are the dimensions of your wardrobe cabinet? Hard to talk about lighitng without knowing what it's going to illuminate.

Like I mean having the led grow panel alongside HPS DUAL SPECTRUM GROW LIGHT BULB 400w WATT ?
Note that a 400W HPS puts out a fair amount of heat. You will need to replace the air with a decent exhaust fan. Depending on the room the cabinet is in, the air may need to be exhausted outside, or at least into another room.

Something to consider.

i was planning on using a oscillating fan if I’m being honest, so with that in mind, are there any alternative light bulbs you would suggest that won’t emit vast amounts of heat?

really appreciate the help

Thanks bro.
Having a look online now, personally would you say I can have both LED and maybe cfl/hid lights?
Would this benefit the plants ?
As I’m thinking to mix it up abit
Yeah.. any combo works..but as said already by @spek9 you will need to exhaust..and exhaust hard in summer .. unless you are drawing cold air in from some where or using an AC... but given and no offence you are asking about a 10w LED I am guessing your not about to be running ac just yet...

A cool tube is great for cooling but the light steals some par .. an aircooled hood is a good option BUT they are usually quite big !! .. or a parabolic is prob best for light paired with a 600w mh/hps/dualspec

..But again these bulbs get fucking hot. So you need to have really good air flow ...and with that airflow noise of air movement and fan hum (if you are using a speed controller especially) etc can be an issue...it can be resolved ..but again ...money...

To be honest LED and CFL If done right is bloody amazing !!! I am doing my 1st grow in 10 years... I was a member here 10 years ago..but my Grows in my signature lost all the pics ...or 98% of them.. hence the name change when I sign off from FS to STELTHY...

Anyhow..I am using LED and CFL now .. ..still an expensive setup and ironically I am using a 20w 6500K CFL/LED/GLS (low watt) LOL :D as well lol.. but only to add a tiny extra amount of blue in the flowering spectrum in an attempt for just a little more resin... I'll add a few pics in a sec .. but I will never go back to HID.. and for good reason - STELTHY :leaf: 20200419_150111.jpg20200419_145646.jpg20200419_145736.jpg20200419_145751.jpg
