I am currently using five 23 watt CFL bulbs (equivalent of 100W normal light) for the veg stage. Each CFL is 1600 lumens and 5000K. I couldnt find any that were 6500K either at Home Depot or Lowes. As my girls get bigger I am gonna add more lights. Im also going to put little lamps on the sides and maybe even pointing up so I can get the bottoms of the plants. I made the light fixture myself from ideas I found online. I plan to put 12 CFLs in my fixture. I hope thats going to be enough but I plan on just playing it by ear.
