I have now started this years grow, seemed like forever for the weather to start to come around. anyway in my seedling\veg room i have
2 26 wattCFL's
2 18 watt (natural light) CFL
2 2ft T8's
2 13 watt CFL's
with this lighting be ok for about 25 to 30 plants to grow to around foot tall or so give or take.till i can get them outside. thanks

i use more wattage of cfls for one plant
i would definitly have more watts for that many plants

but thats just my opinion

I would reccomend more lighting/wattage as well, if you really want to get them big use an MH than transfer outdoors.

get a few more of those t8's and you'll be fine for up to two weeks, but then you better get them under the sun or they'll strech and you'll lose out on some side branching.
