WRONG! WRONG! try some real cfl' doc! this little bullshit reg wall cfl's suck here the cfl to grow under! They are call t-5/ho fluoresents.They come in two foot bulbs and four foot bulbs. the four foot bulbs are 54 watts each and can come in light set up's of one bulb up to eight bulb models which puts out 40,000 lumen without any of heat or cooling devises needed to cool such lights. This will save the cost of vent motors ducting and the electric cost to run theses extra items.try this web site to fine these fixtures. www.nationalgardenwholesale.com... To grow with such little bulbs give ya such airey weed and this is about four years behind the times. Doc I DONT mean to be mean or hurt your feeling at all!, it's just passing on some updated data that all!they have a small light set up perfect for clones and mothers and it' real great in tight places it is there model t-2/28 this has (8) eight to foot bulbs at a total of useful lumens of 28,000 lumens on a power draw of only 232 watts. Here the latest and greatest from a company from sunnydale California, called "LUXIM CORP. Go to youtube, go to the search window, type in this "lower case letters, "plasma light bulb" this buld is the size of a vickel and useing only 250 watts of power but will outdo ANY H.I.D. bulb period! Why do i say this? The bulb burn @ 6000Kevilen, and make the same wave leath as the SUN!!I dont have a price on them yet, but trying.OH! before i forget the bulbs of the t-5's come in for growing, clones, andd mothers use the 6500k type bulbs, and for BLOOM use the 300k bulbs. Because the bulba are small and ther is eight of them on the 48 model you mix,and match the 3000k bubs with the 6500k bulbs for the different growth satges of the plantd life.For veg., and clones and mothers mix (6) six 6500k blubs with (2)two of the 3000k ,for a total of eight bulbs. Now for BLOOMING CANNABIS under this system, you use (6) of the 3000k,and (2)two of the 6500k bulbs for flowering. You can flower up to (6) six plants under each of these light set- up. peace and pot, sees in the dark.

They're only about a ft tall.... I've only got about another 2'6" of space to grow, so I've got to flower them a little early...
okay yea youll have plenty of watage but the 23s might be useful for suplementary lighting and developing those sexy extra bud sights
