(fluorescent lights NO!)Jewelry Photography

Will flourescent ‘grow lights’ work as a substitue for natural
light, it has a 5000K temp rating.

Fluorescent lights use phosphors which emit narrow spectrum
bands of light. Thus they do not have an even color distribution.
so in a word NO! Take a photo under fluorescent lighting some
time and you will see- it is the most unflattering lighting ever
developed.
