Im going with Shrot Rider (100% fem, 100 autoflower)

My question:
Im going to use CFL 4x 24w 6500k at start untill i see what genr they are and then
i want to add 4x 24w 2500k too them. Total of 8 bulbs.

Will this be ok to add them? mix 6500k with 2500k
will they grow allright? or is it better to just switch all too 2500k

lol

Didn't read any of the results but use all the light you can. More light = more bud. I have every single light I own in my grow room. LED, CFL and HPS. :-D

Also, when its time for your autos to auto, you should pay attention. I have AK-48 and Bubbalicious growing and NEITHER auto'd. It was 60 day's into veg before I rememberd. lol. I put em on 12/12 and they flowered in a matter of days. On the up side they are huge. Some are almost 4 feet tall.

well in that case,
im thinking of going 4x 6500k and 8x 2700k
giveing total of 12 bulbs of light (thats 276w)
i think that should be really nice for 3 plants,
the only problem im having atm is connecting all of them and all the wires are pissing me of
also im using 4x "Y" and 4 regular for bulbs. 1 "Y" each corner and 4 regulars in middle :D

And for all that wattage, you could do wayyyy better with a 250 watt HPS, so if space isn't issue get a HPS.

lol i cant find any good HPS lights for my box :S
box is 80cm long and about 70cm tall and 60cm deep
Max Watt : 400w is max what i could use i think
any1 got any good ideas?
would one HPS 400w be better then lets say 20x23w 2700k CFL? ((cant find higher CFL's in my country... atm))
