I have 6- 23watt 1600 lumen. I think 5k spectrum.. Right? Well theyve been in a drawr for atleast 2 years. This is my first grow indoors.

So if i can spend as little money possible to see if i enjoy growning.. Then help guide me! 😂

Ok so i need to kno if those 6 bulbs will work with 3 plants?

Even if they will, i would also like advice on how many light hours..
If i could get away with 12/12 the whole grow?
Or maybe if u think i should go buy 2 other bulbs. A different spectrum. Im a bad reader when it comes to following directions so if u can make it extreamly simple it would be appriciated.

Im not trying to pull out big yeilds as this is a personal only grow.. I just want to smoke my shit and be happy im not spendin $75 every 4-6 days

Ive done mad research but for some reason this cfl thing is killin me.. Please help me!

You can do 12/12 from seed. It wont yield lots but its faster and you can do multiple plants. Get a mix of 6500k and 2700k bulbs with the highest actual wattage you can find. As long as you have good ventilation you can not over-do the lights. More is better. Place them everywhere you can and close as you can without touching the plants.

I vegged for 30 days and went well into flower with only 98w of mixed 5000k and 2700k bulbs.

So for my 3 plants if i added 2 2700k bulbs it will work? Or should it be the other way around?
That would be fine to veg, but when you go into flower, I would either swap out 2 of the 5000k for 2700's or better yet, just add 2 more 2700's.
Why not just get yourself a 4 pack of the 2700k's now for about $10-12?

get the pack and get the hardware and hang some bulbs around .. u wont spend that much.. i think for my cfls and 2 individual light sockets and cord i spent about 30 bucks.. maybe 35.. u can get the dual light sockets as well.. if you spent 75 bucks on cfls with the proper grow spectrum for veg and flower you will have plenty of light for the 3 plants... i used a 2 foot 4 bulb high output t5.. which is a flouro with veg and flower spec bulbs. had 6 autos under it..each bulb is about 24w... produced about 3 ounces off it.. good qual smoke too...
