your prolly gonna need more than one for just one plant. i dont think you could grow 3 with one. but the one your gonna start with during the vegging phase is the 6500k, then switch to 2700 during flowering.

150w for 1st plant and 50w per plant after (Vege) 6500K
200w for 1st plant and 100w per plant after (flowering) 2700k

i think you're refering to 100w incandescent equivilant. its actually really 24w.
you either need many small ones, or just get some high power CFLs online.
there are 65w - 325w equivilant ones.
there are also 120w and even 250w CFLs you can consider

use both and then try and get more 6500k during veg, then when you go to flower try to do more of the 2700k bulbs. like a 4:1 ratio or something

buy one or 2 big watters only they are not efficent as the 23watt.

23 watts have a 69lumens/watt ratio....as the it gets bigger u add wattage but lower light quality.... just get 1x 200w CFL and put that on top and use 23w cfl around the plant and in dark areas.

just make sure to hang side lighting because CFls do not penetrate as deeply as hps/hid. I even use cfl to supplant my hps in flowering

You know i just tried upgrading my 14w bulbs to the 23w and they burned my plant, am i doing something wrong?… they weren't even with in 5 inches..
Don't mean to hijack the thread :/
