see if you can find the kelvin temp on those CFL's...5000k-6500k (kelvin temp) will get you started...:thumbsup:

the labels are hard to read...tricky..when looking for the kelvin temp...some labels don't say?...:wtf:

Try it and find out!

You should be fine. Just make sure you get a fan blowing through all those lights.

i am using a fan but the lights do not give off to much heat. they keep the room at a stable temp. and with the kelvin temp i do not know but they are 3500 juels or 6000 juels i cant remember. haha

Hi
I dont think they will be enough for three plants. They are hot and will have to be kept away from the plants.
also you will ned to change from grow to bloom and they will nt work for bloom.

try looking into led lights
try the UFo
you can get the smaller model and it will work for both grow and bloom and use far less elec.

Hi,

I haven't posted here since last September(I'm mainly an outdoor northern US grower). However, I do a few indoor projects as well during the Winter months. I also start outdoor plants indoors and ALWAYS use LED lights.

They are full spectrum growing lights and will save indoor growers both in energy bills/detectability.

Good luck all!
