i have vegged under 1 23 watt per plant and it worked just as well as considerably more light. but then again i was only vegging to 8 inch.

I currently am doing a veg grow with one 23w CFL..... It's pretty large now, I want to say at least 12-18 inches or larger. It seems I can go on for veg forever with near no light..... but once budding starts, thats where the light requirement starts.
