I am getting ready to start my vegetable seeds inside so I can transplant them out into my raised beds in May. I would like to know what kind of lights I should buy to grow them under. I will be getting them from Menards or Home Depot. I have a 4 shelf greenhouse that I have in my garage. It is 20 inches deep and 47 inches long. The shelves are 13 inches apart. Once they outgrow the shelves, I can move them in a bigger area. I have one 48" florescent fixture that with 2 bulbs. It says it is a relamp with instant start F32T8. I am afraid this is an inch too big for my greenhouse but can use it in a bigger area.

The lights I am using with my greenhouse right now are short grow lights with one bulb. I have a few flower seeds growing there now. Any suggestions are appreciated.
Yard decor, repurposing, and flowers,
