TOO MUCH LIGHT....?

[fireman25]

IS THERE SUCH A THING....? HOW MANY LUMENS DO I NEED FOR ONE PLANT? I THOUGHT I READ SOMEWHERE ON THIS SITE THAT IF I HAVE 5000 LUMENS PER SQ FT I'M GOOD......TRUE? ALSO HOW MUCH MORE LIGHT SHOULD THERE BE DURING FLOWER AS OPPOSED TO VEG?

I keep reading and it looks to me like 5000 lumens per sq ft is what I need in both flower and veg. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

in veg, a 100w CFL will be fine for 2 or 3 moms. in flowering, you should have atleast a 400w HPS for 3 or 4 clones.

atleast 10,000 lumens per 2 plants.
