Yea they are 13w with one 27w... I guess I could get all 27w..
But If my research isnt correct please do correct me. Ive read 2500-3500 Lumens per plant.. These are my light calculations..

4 x 13w-800 lumens each 3200 Lumens TOTAL
4 x 13w-825 Lumens Each 3300 Lumens TOTAL
1 x 27w-1250 Lumens
Im getting this info from the boxes of the bulbs BTW..

7750 LUMENS In that Box Isnt that sufficient for the one plant...:?::eyesmoke:

the 26W ones I have are 1600 lumes each... I will have 8... so thats 12800 lumens total... not per sq. ft... the sun gives off 10000 lumens per sq. ft. so you want to try to get as close to that as possible although on a stealth setup like this you will most like ly not get that high... ive also read that about 6000-7000 per sq. foot is great, but still the more the merrier they say... just get as many lumens in there as you can... but make sure you can still deal with the extra heat you will have.. so you may need to upgrade your ventilation system... this is all from what ive read on this site over the past few months LOL so ya :leaf: gotta go smoke a bowl now peace and looking very nice by the waybongsmilie

i would move up to the 27w bulbs or even the 42w. you will see a big difference if you move up to the 42 watters. try moving the bulbs closer. but be careful of heat. i'm sure you have mentioned but what are you using for ventilation?

peace
