[align=center]I've been using CFS for a year now they work out to
70 lumun per watt or in other words 10500 lumun /125 watt bulb.
Most folks I've talk to tell me
10'x2' space needs about 140k lumun
which you can get from
1 /1000 watt,
2/600 watts
3/400 watt units
or 14/125 CFS'S
I'm now in the markit for few 400 watt units myself reduced heat.
Don't get me wrong their good for cloning/seeding and as some added lighting but for Veg./Flower they work only half ass
You'll get bud but to grow the best your stuck with
High Pressure Sodium for flower and
Metal Halide for veg.
But if you still want to go with CFS's let me know

kenbev40 Reviewed by kenbev40 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
