the first time i tried using cfls i construvcted a box with one 100w,two 42w,and four 26w bulbs. im not sure of the lumen amount but thats close to 300w of light and that is deffinately sufficient for a couple plants so i tried vegging six mexi sativas and they grew to about six to ten inches tall about eight to ten nodes each and then started having very droopy leaves they laid down completely flat. i saved those plants by putting them outside where they went into flower,two were males one was a herm and i have one confirmed female.after constructing the box and paying 18$ more on my electric bill last month i wasnt going to give up and germed about twenty PURKLE seeds which are mainly indica and so far the four i have in the growbox are loving life and having no droopy problems at all. are sativas just more gredy for light? if i added more light would they have perked up?
