Everyone assures ne I need a 150W HPS.

My buddy and I built a nice grow box that has inside dimensions of 3'1 high, 1'6 deep and 2'4 wide. It contains 1" reflective insulation and weather tight with a door a fan that brings in fresh air and an exhaust that takes air out into a HVAC duct with fabric softner to help dull the smell. I will be using the Aerogarden Deluxe.

So to go along with the 3 Aerolights, if I wre not to go with HPS how many CFL's would I need on each side. I think I might plan to mix 2-1 on Veg and flowering keeping the higher ratio to what it needs (2700-6500)

Or should I do 2 each side with the HPS overhead(there so big and hot compared to CFL's)

Is it better to have a group 3-4 each side of low wattage CFL's(20-30W) or 1/2 high ones(100-200W) each side

PS Im only growing 3 in the Aero
