growbox question????

ok im just going to get right into it........I have a grow box 2ft long 3ft wide and about 4 1/2ft tall...i have three 23watt cfls for veg and my plants are no more than a month old........they're doing amazing but thats not the issue. i was wondering how much more lighting i would need for future veg, and eventually flowering????????? any help will be greatly appreciated! ill have pics soon

nobady i kow someone out there has some advice

how much cfl lighting? as much as you can fit without raising the temperature too much. i think garden knowm recommended at least 3 cfl's per plant. i assume you know about the different veg and flower spectrums, right?

hey, i just saw you're from chicago. cool. i'm from 3 hours south of you

south, that must be some good outdoor growing. but ya im from the grate chi lol, and ya i know about the lighting spectrums blue for veg red for flowering i have about total 5,000 lumens right now im going to be getting updated pics coming soon but i cant find my damn camera! and the temperature is a solid 76 its pretty good i have a half perlite, half hyponex soil mix...are u growing ne thing currently? and thanks for the advice too.

what if i add 2 48in, fluros (tubes) along with the cfls or is it bad to mix em ive never mixed lighting before so im jus not sure??

go for it. mix away the more light the better. the idea with cfl's is to get every part of the plant 1-2 inches away from a bulb. or at least as best that you can with that idea. i have a pic in test grow, my plant is loving it. check it out.

yup it looks good man!!! and its weird at the same time i have a box that looks just like that but a lil smaler but it basically looks the same but thanks for the help + rep
