Lighting systems to encourage plant growth use higher wattage lamps than those used in the home. Standard timers are not designed to control these systems due to the large amount of power they initially draw to ignite. The heavy currents cause the small contacts in standard timers to weld together preventing the timer from switching off & in the worse case can cause the timer to burn out.
