    No "special" kind of flo light is needed, just the normal tube flo's you're talking about - they're cheap to buy from many shops (like you said, home depot) ... As for Watts, if you're after just one SINGLE tube flo, prob look at one about 50w - and for DOUBLE tube look for 100w...that should do you nicely

    double just has an extra tube than the single one's...
    So 2 single's = 1 double....1 double is cheaper than 2 single's usually so yea

    alright so one 100 watt double tube flo light should be perfect in my mini fridge for the vegatative period but wen the flowering period starts people say use the metal halide and do 12 hours of light and 12 hours of dark. how many watts should the metal halide be?

    i dunno about the MH aye. when you start your flowering period with any light you'd wanna switch to 12/12 periods,and yea the 100w flo would do nicely in your mini fridge. 100w flo is more than i have at the mo and mine are doing alright (2 inches at the mo...buying more flueros soon)
    I'm using only fleuros for my grow. ive been told that mh's and other powreful lights are far more expnsive to buy,run and run really hot so there's the risk of burning your plant if it's not fan-cooled or ventilated properly so yea thats why i'm all up for flueros - still grow nice plants though.Good luck with ur grow

    Your going to have to stick to Floro for veg and CFL's for flowering.
    But you still need an exhaust system.
