Well, again, I'm not going for too much yield. More of like a Sea of Green, but only with 3 plants.

Although, I do understand to get as much light as possible, so I'll see what I can do. I didn't get any of the lights yesterday cause my mom was being lazy soooo.... hopefully today or tomorrow I'll go out for them. Also, Home Depot will have y-splitters right?

....I really need to learn how to drive....

smoke a good bowl and float to the store ;-)

in my area, lowes has the best prices for porcelain bulb sockets. like $1.50 each. home depot or lowes should have the Y sockets, but I got mine at walmart pretty cheap. I would try to aim for 8-10 26 watt cfl's for vegging. 1 inch from the top of the plants, but never touching.

8-10 for 3 plants during vegging? I would think maybe 6... although, once the time comes to flower them, I'm hoping at least one of them are female. If two, then I'll pick the stronger of them to flower. This should help with me not having to get too much more lights.

the more light the better the results. cfl's don't put off very intense light. that's why people use MH and HPS lamps even for just a few plants. way stronger light. tons of light for flowering, or the bud may be loose when harvested.
