need light help how many do i need minimum????

i have some already but the label says "self ballasted lamp" 32w 120v 60h 2700k and i will put a metal hood over them how many is the min. i need for vegging and budding thanks???

and they are cfls

i would get 6500k lights for veging and 2700k for flower, Also how big is your grow area?

50 watts per sq ft minimum. 6500 K (Daylight is best)

my grow area is a whole attic but i can build a little sectian for my plants but how big sholuld it be?and how many lights do i need for that big of area.i want like 5 plants?????

and i dont know where to get lights any stronger any help?

well for 5 plants i would get yourself a tent mate and put a mh/hps conversion in there with a cooltube, but all this depends on how much money u have to spend

ya man you would need a lot of cfl's for 5 plants.

also the size on the section u want to build really depends on how big u want your plants to get
