Also, remember the more lumens (or wattage) the better. I think the minimum with fluorescents for an ok grow are about 50 watts.

Damn, I didn't see the pic at the bottom. You're talking a CF's, oh.
I have 6 shop lights doubled tubes that throw off about 2100 lumen per tube times 12 brings it close to 30,000 lumens well over recommended,I harvested a couple of weeks ago and done real well...........
should note that the tubes I use are used for plant growth they have full spectrum lighting
