ignore the wattage of the bulb....look on the side of the box the light bulb comes in...it will tell u how lumens that bulb is......ideal lumens is 6,000 per square foot.
chonged Reviewed by chonged on . setup with cfl's hi i have 5 seedlings, 1 is a week old, lightened with 2 X 23w cfl (100w equivalent) soft white, and i have one 23w cfl for the other 4 which are only 2 days old. is it enough, would getting another 23w cfl for my one week old one be too much, or not even enough. is it better to use more 23w cfl or buy just one 100 or 125w cfl. Is it even possible for a plant to get too much light (lumen) thank you guys Rating: 5
