So heres how i grow:

4 23watt cfl's
-During the veg state i use a mix of 65k and 23K light(I veg for about 4-6 weeks, or it depends on how big i want the plant:p )
-During Flower i use only 23k light
For Nutrients:
- i use a nutrient called Super Thrive(1 gallon of water with 2 drops of the nutrients)
- fertilize about every 2 weeks so the plant doesnt depend on the nutrients to live.( they grow bigger also)
Flower:
- All depends on how much buds i want:p
Light schedule:
- For the veg state i go 18/6(less stress on the plant, when you change to 12/12)
- For flower i go 12/12

Hey guys, im making a taller and bigger box for my flower cycle, do you think 3-4 150watt cfl's will do the job or 4-5 cfls?

to be honest i have no idea on what kind of bulbs to get, because now with my small box i have 4 23watt CFL's in there. And with my new box i have no idea on what kind of lighting to put inside.. Do you have any ideas?

i've heard people like them mogul blulbs there around the 70-80 buck range... and can get up to i think 200w, I guess it depends on the space you have and what you can afford, theres a site called 1000bulbs.com or something like that pretty decent priced bulbs..

the big mogul cfls work nicely if temp is an issue and you have the room for a bulb that size... check my sig for a scale pic of some the ones I use. I love em

i got 8 of those 23 watters in a 2 foot card board box with no problems. 184 watts and still thinking i need more lights. i might be switching to a 250w cmh. my buds arent as big as i would like.

so i might put 4 23 watt cfl on each side of the box and put fans between them (outtake), then put 6 intake fans at the bottom.

So did you go with the 4X23W setup you mentioned before? If so might I recommend moving your intake fans to exhaust? Should be able to move more air that way.
