CFL's vs 1 CFL?!?!?!

[TokinBaby]

I have a quick question...i have a choice of getting either

A. (1)-105watt 6000k = 6900 lumens
or
B. (4)-23watt 6000k = 6400 lumens
(1)-9watt 6000k = 520 lumens
= 101 watts = 6920 lumens

Which one would you choose? Thanks!

well with more light you get more of a even band of it over the plants vs. a single light.

however the single light has a better penetration to the canopy then the other CFl's

if it where me i just get 4-42watt CFLs at walmart and use them instead

yeah, i never messed with anything smaller than 42's, the prices are not much different compared to the smaller ones anyway

Multiple points of light is really important with flouros because of the penetration... obviously more points of light AND more watts is SUPER.
