lighting HELP!

[toxicmel]

well i been using a 14w light bulb i know thats not enough im going to buy stronger ones but the question is i just changed to a 18w and the light is like a blueish color
the 14w was a oranger color
whats the difference? and what color light works best for the plant? is it okay that i switched from 14 to 18?
how many watts do you need for just one plant?
i need advice before i go to the store!

the bluer ligh is better for vegging the plant, while the redder light is better for flowering.
The bulb switch was good, but you will need a lot more light very soon.

it will work to grow your plant from start to finish, but that doesn't mean that's what's best for your (hopeful) lady.

the blueish bulb is somewhere around 6500K and the redish orange is around 2700K. even if you use 16x 23W CFLs you will be dissapointed with your results. they will be light and airy.
