[bboysoccer47]

using two 105w cfl's enough for growing 2-4 plants?


i wuld use 150w but i can only find the bulbs in the 5000k spectrum and not the 2700k anyone know where i can find them?

True watts right? Not the incandescent equivalent?

If so, then yeah you're probably at least decent as far as lighting goes.

But make sure to keep those lights within 1-2 inches from the tops of those plants.

Good luck.

It seems like over 105 you get some serious diminishing returns. You could add two more 105s for a better value. Are you using one 6500 and one 2700? Check here:

i want to use two of each at a time...im still trying to figure out what is more cost effective: a few high power lights or a bunch of smaller lights (just having trouble finding/building fixtures for the little lights able to plug into the wall)
