My friend gave me a :420: 96w grow light :420:, It's 4x24w fluorescent grow tubes in a fixture with a reflector. I'm moving to an apartment that doesn't have a gardening space, so was thinking of hanging it above the fridge (roughly 2.5'x2.5' area?) and growing as many edible things as possible. I am a single dude who cooks a lot, and am a CSA member so looking for something to supplement the vegetables I already get.

I'm going to do as many herbs as possible, but was wondering what else will work with that amount of light. I have some Tom Thumb mini lettuce and dwarf Micro Tom tomato seeds I used to grow on a windowsill so I'll try those. Would a bushy determinate tomato plant work under 96w? The Micro Toms are cool but not the tastiest. Hot peppers would be rad, can someone recommend a variety that will work in a small container? What else could I try?
