i made a mistake and bought 100w replacment bulbs. they look like regular floros. but someone told me there actually incadecent, and there only 23w, how the fuck can u have 2 wattages on a bulb. anyway. should i put my 60w halogen back on one of the plants or leave the 23w fake floros? thanks.

some one was prbably pulling your leg... standard 23 watters are cfl. if it were incandescant there would be no need for the twisty tube. also incandescants done come in odd wattages like that. they come in like 60 75 100 45 stuff like that not 23

whats the brand of light? im sure they misread or something if it says it replaces a 100 watt incandescant its obviously not an incandescant.

23w are the way to go! Halogen dont put out enough light. what size plant do you have? have atleast 4 26w cfl per plant and have them about 2-3 inches from the plant for best grow!

these are the plants there goin on, some stretched ALOT when i was gettin somewhat setup, and you can see one of em had a growth spurt right into one of the gro-bulbs. i had 4 120w gro-bulbs. but i only hav one now and its just for heat mainly. ill try to get a pic of my set up.

Did your light fall on the plant in pic two?
If your grow bulb isnt an HID setup i wouldnt waist your time! Cfls will do the job! like a total of 6 would be great for those plants!
