I'm moving into 2 * 2 meters, so I'm filling out my 250HPS with about 100 watts of CFL.

I can get 6 * 20w CFL's for just a little cheaper than 1 * 120w CFL.
Of course I have to do all the wiring, but would small ones be a smarter pick, as I can sort of "laser" guide them better ?
Or just go with the 120w CLS and fill the room with lumens?

Thanks for the answer. :D
125w actually.
They have up to 200w at this place, but then again they specialize in weed farmers.

You'll have to click the "Butiken" or the "belysning" button.

I only have 3 Top 44 female clones at this point, but I plan on increasing clone production, and I'm hoping to run 4-6 plants at a go...

Grow area: 2 * 2 meters and nice and tall, maybe almost 4 meters.

I love currency like that. You can feel like Bill Gates for five bucks!

Hey Faith..

if you are using the CFLs as side lighting then tall is ok and you actually might have some amazing results.. but it will take some care and precision.. cause 250 watts hps will not give you more than 12 inches of decent penetration..

I would go with 3 - 125 watt CFLs, keep them very very close to the sides of your plants..
