Hello , im new to this site and new to growing. Im attemping for the first time to grow. Im looking to only have about 4 plants flowering at a time. Im useing Fluro to grow. I have a 4 ft Balist with two T12 40 Watt bulbs (Think its about 3000 Lumens per bulb, and color temp is 6500k i believe) , I also have 6 CLF's . Two putting out 1600 Lumens and two putting out i think 1000 or so lumens these all have a 6500k Color temp. and i also have two 1000 Lumen 2400k bulbs. I heard these were good for flowering. Like i said im very new and this is my first time. Everything seems to be going good , but i have a few questions and was hopeing someone with alot of experience would be able to help me out.

How close should i have my lights to my plants?
Roughly how tall will my plants be when they start Veg stage ?
Im running my lights 24 hours , when do i change to a diff light sched?
How many lights would i need for 4-6 Plants and how many lumens and what color temp??

Also looking for any little tips and hints to help me out with this , im really just reading alot on here and winging it ... but would be very thankful if someone who knows what the hell they are doing to help me out.

Thanks guys
