    Gro-Lux lights

    I have a space under a stair case and have a pair of 2x 24" grow hoods. I'm thinking of mounting them so I can just slide the plants along the lights (that are fastened to the bottom of the steps on a slant) as they grow. My question is will a pair of gro-lux 20 w wide spectrum lights with a 23w cfl in the center be enough to keep the girls happy? I have the wlls lined with mylar (walmart emergency blankets @$3 cdn each !!!! thank you cannabis.com! ).
    I think I have all the vent problems worked out and will be moving them to a different room (3'x3') for flowering with 600w hps. My goal is a conveyor belt idea to always have a little bit ready for harvest.
    Does anybody have any comments on this. I have read so much on spectrums and lighting but there really isn't a lot of detail on flo's. CFL yes but types of flow..... glo-lux wide spectrum...???
    Surely somebody has triied them...

    Thanks in advance and may I say that this site is a wealth of knowledge and there are a bunch of you that blow my mind. The passion of botany is amazing!

    Sounds like it should work okay. However, if you see your plants stretching (lots of space between nodes), add a few more cool 6500k CFLs if you can. And keep them as close to the plants as you can without burning the plants.

    Thanks Jamstigator, I'm in a rush to get my test bag seeds done and out of the way as I have some great seeds waiting.
    Have you used the gro-lux?
