If I was growing femmed seeds then I would throw everything I have at her without trying to save electricity and go for big growth and faster maturing if possible. I have a switchable ballast so for me if I am out of clones then my babies are first veg from seed on t5ho or cfl then my 400watt mh bulb then switch to hps 400w to finish in flower.
To my knowledge I should have 14 females there. It was feminized seeds I bought so here is hoping.

Would you go for 2 x 600w if you knew they were female. Things concerning me just now would be that the plants are getting very bushy so the stems arent getting as much light. I have all 14 pots side by side and some are overlaping. To spread them out I think I would need an extra light. The plants are californian Dream, I dont know anything about them but I would like to maxamize yield so my next crop can be small and someone advised me for yield I need as much light as possible.

Thanks for the tips
