enough lights?

[k1ng87]

I just started a grow room for 5 plants in 5 gallon buckets that is 2ft by 12ft currently I have 4 cfl ballasts with 8 36watt daylight tubes (2750 lumens each), 2 hps (9500 lumens each) and 1 grow LED (?? lumens)

do I have enough kight?

Probably, but not enough space...how do you plan to get to the plants in the back without injuring the others....and start with smaller containers and work up.

i guess just squeeze back there...i'm gonna switch to aero now tomorrow so i dont have to change each bucket...it'll be alot easier doing aero i feel like.

You might stagger your plants to make for easier access. Like as you walk down the room, 1 to the rt, 1 to the lt, 1 to the rt, etc?

I have heard that 110w for the first plant and 50w for each additional is BARE MINIMUM for a cfl grow. You also have hps and LED so you're probably ok. I would keep the fluoros within inches of your tops.
