Hey Tech how many lumens do your CFL's produce? Because I checked out superstore and I can get 6 of them for 13 bucks and all of them together would be 4800 lumens is that enough to do any growing or should I get a couple more maybe in a higher wattage? And how many lumens are in a 400 Watt HPS and a 400 Metal Halide?

I was also wondering about where all you fancy cats get your hanging light fixtures. You know the wired ones that have two sockets to screw the light bulbs in. Also I was wondering if there were 3 sided ones and how much did you pay for these fixtures?


Thanks for all your help

400w can be 30,000 to 50,000 lumens depending on bulbs. So many types.

Yea i don't always trust what the box says. I go by maker , would rather spend more and get what i pay for.
