if you want serious results, a 400W HPS is the least i would go for. you can use a 600W or 1000W. go bigger if you do plan to upgrade the space later....but don't go bigger than your budget will allow for ventilation. 600W might be the sweet spot.

it's a 125W CFL? is it actually consume 125W or is that it's incandescent equivalent? if it does actually use 125W then it should be fine, possibly overkill for starting clones, depending on how many you have. you'll want to read up on cloning if you are going to go with a SOG.

thanks a ton for all the help
do you want to go soil or hydro? either way, you can make a say, 4' x 4' flowering chamber and then use the other for storage and the clones. with that size of flowering chamber you can get enough plants to keep your harvest perpetual.

now go and read all that you can!

you're welcome for the help.
