    1.] 4 30w cfls= 30k lumen... 105w cfl= about 6200 lumens or so.. So you got sum badass bulbs.

    3.] Read,read,read, now take a breake get coffe or no doze....Read some more,Read,read An you should have gathered more knowledge now cause seems like you just bought couple lights and threw seeds in dirt and have not even attempted to research a little bit.
    4.] How long does it take in stages... Depends on strain. Flowering is anywhere from 6-13 weeks alone. And CFL's take alittle longer to finish.:jointsmile:
    5.] Lights as close as they can be with out burning or causing heat stress to tha plant. Cfl's 1-4 inches from plant as they dont penetrate far down
