I usually use it just to start seedlings in the early spring, but tried this winter to grow lettuce in potting soil with the lights and it's definitely gonna take longer than 3 weeks. I'm avoiding any higher wattage lights primarily because of energy costs.

I use 6 sunblaster lamps, very similar to that setup. My lights are only a few inches above the plants, maybe that's something. Could also be that my plants took longer than 3 weeks to develop their initial root structure and only grow that fast not that they are established. I grow hydroponically, so that could be a factor too.
