kk so i have been reading all of thse "guides" and i mainly get the idea of i need 2000 lumens to 10,000 lumens per square foot, my plan is growing a small sea of green and the pots are each 6 inches wide. so how many lumens would i need per square foot with cpf's lights?

That's all relative. If you have mainly blue spectrum lights, you're going to need to crank up the lumens for flowering and still won't have as good of luck as you would if the light was around 2700k. How big is the room you are using?

ummmm lights light. without going into tecnecial detail about the only thing that will differ is the color spectrum. go with what ever guid you want and multiply out and find the surface area then youll be able to answer it yourself
