17600 lumens 1 plant

[Sarah Dragon]

It makes sense. If you add bulbs together you do get more lumens, but it's not the same as adding lumens together. There must be a formula for this.

Sarah please explain wahat you are talking about ......when you say 'adding lumens'

[Powder Puff]

The lumens are messured per sqaure feet.. If you have more lights, the lumens will glow on one place of the plant, and then you get better growth.. Still it doesn't count as adding them together.. Sorry for being a mood killer!

You still don't have to get a better veg setup, just have a few CFL's for veg.. Two over each plant!

I didn't have the nerve to hang my cfl's up, and raise all of them all the time, so I'm just using my 400 W sunmaster HPS!

And they are growing..!

You do know, you can't add all the lumens together..!

I saw this on some other thread a while ago..!

THINK OF IT LIKE OCTANE IN GASOLINE. IF I ADD 5 GALLONS OF 87 OCTANE GAS TO 5 GALLONS OF 87 OCTANE GAS,,, I STILL HAVE 87 OCTANE. ONLY NOW I HAVE 10 GALLONS OF IT.

thats a really clever explanation

THNX, I'M PRETTY SMART FOR AN OLD MAN

Get an HPS.

What I mean by adding lumens for example: Think of the light that comes out of the bulb like an upside down v. If you put three bulbs together, it overlaps. My growbox is definatly more bright with more bulbs even if they are placed close together; but, I'm sure that it isn't nearly as effective as the same wattage coming from one bulb. I find it very hard to believe that the amount of lumens coming from 3 bulbs is the exactly the same as one bulb of the same wattage.
