35,000 lumens of fluoros!!!

I will when I can, I will when I can, I will when I can, I will when I can

Not going to go rip them out of their room just to take pics. Will when I water.

Realizing heat was an issue, you made the proper choice, to stay with CFL's. However, you should consider:

Using the big 125W CFL @ 2700K :) :) :)

That would be sweeeeeeet.

I just bought a Agri Zone Full Spectrum CFL - 3000 lumens - 200W @5500K - Plants are loving it...cost about $30 a bulb though

You actually have a 42 watt bulb that puts out the same light that 200 watts of incandescents puts out. It's still just a 42 watt bulb though, which is ok mind you! It's just not a 200 watt CFL like you're suggesting. If it were, it'd be putting out over 10,000 lumens. I've got 10 of those 40+ watt CFL's plus 2 23 watters and a 2 footer and 4 footer. Still not enough. I bought a few 43 watters at Super Sprawl Mart...for $9 each.
