I have a few trays of succulents I've had in a South facing windowsill of zone 9b. I found s few grow lights on clearance for about 3.50 each and had some spare lamps laying around. I was thinking i might be able to boost their growth when i first saw them. Will these be good as a few hours supplemental lighting each day? Or am i still better off keeping an eye out for some cheap full spectrum lights? I'm assuming these wouldn't keep the plant healthy on their own since they're majority red light.
This is my first time trying to propogate succulent leaves i bottom water the tray about every two weeks. They look like they're doing great in the window, but I'm just a bit of an impatient person 🤷♂️

A common problem with cacti and succulents is etiolation. This is when a succulent stretches or becomes leggy. Reply with “!etiolation” for advice.
