I have a very important question. I bought some 45 watt (equivalent to 150 watt) CFL's, each 2900 Lumens for $8. But, at Home Depot they have a pack of 2) 23 watt (equivalent to 100 watt) 1600 lumens each for only $1.88. I figured if i can buy the 2) 1600 lumens (3200 lumens total) for $1.88. it would save me a shitload of money. Would it be better or as well to have a bunch of 23 watt bulbs then a few 45 watt (2900 lumens). If the 23 watt bulbs are enough to penetrate the plants, I could afford to buy alot of them rather then a few 45 watt bulbs. I bought 2 boxes today total of 6400 lumens for only $4. Would buying these 23 watt bulbs be more efficent then the 45 watt bulbs?

2) 45 Watt = 5,800 lumens = $16
4) 23 Watt = 6,400 lumens = $4
