Plants can live on light bulbs, but not as easily
for several reasons. First, light bulbs shine at
different colors than the sun does, and plants
are more used to the range of colors you get from
sunlight. Second, light bulbs are rarely as
powerful as full sunlight, you need a lot of them.
However people do grow plants on electric light.
Plants can live on light bulbs, if needed, as
long as the light bulb provides the full spectrum
of light that the sun provides (most incandescent
light bulbs do and so do LED lights that are
specifically designed for plant growth) and with
the right intensity and hours per day.
