I can say you should look up grow lighting(s) and see what some say. If your just trying to get by and keep the alive till it gets warm on one extreme to having them grow like its summer on the other.. I think I'm somewhere in the middle using 300 watt grow lights. I keep all my bananas off the floor to keep them warmer. I keep them running 24/7 with a space heater in my garage to keep it above 60F. I do have augmenting lights I turn on during the day to supplement nature light since I have really small windows where they are located. I have pups coming up so its all good. Several guys have those clip-on mobile lights (the plug in kind w/ the heat sheild) and put grow lights in them since you can attach them to almost anything and you can direct them as you wish to light something up (like a nanner).. I hope that helps :^)
