lighting Has anyone ever tried growing peppers under LED christmas lights?

I don't see why it wouldn't work. Here's where I saw the idea: http://forums.gardenweb.com/forums/load/pepper/msg0111575921204.html
 
It seems like a good idea considering pretty much everyone has christmas lights, but I don't know how well it would work. Also, the set I have have purple, orange, green, blue, and red lights. Would I have to omit any of these colors? More light from one of the colors than the others?

Not bright enough. But if you do, grow one of these:

They grow their own ornaments, see?

I think you would have better luck growing under a light bright.

Yeah, I don't think they would be bright enough either.
