[ghostbulb]

hey guys,ive browsed the cheapo guide to lighting sticky and found alot of info on there

ive got my grow box ready but need to sort out my lighting..

the box is 2 foot high by 14 inches wide and 16 inches deep

im gonna get a clamp lamp and put a y connection in and put 2 cfls in there.. 23 wat cfls??

will these 2 lights be enough for 2 plants in this space or do i need more lights?? this is the main thing holding up my grow at the moment so id appreciate some good advice please :)

ill also need to know what lights will be needed for veg and what ones for flowering ?? im thinking using 2 blue cfls for veg and red ones for flower but not sure if 2 will be enough??

thanks guys:thumbsup:

if the 23w are the 100w equivalent, I would say you have enough light...good luck! make a thread when you get it going so we can check in on it for ya:jointsmile:

:thumbsup: Good advice.

You may be able to go it cheap with this too-- just grab two more Y-sockets + 2 more bulbs. This does a great job on one plant.
