I have a White haze sativa going on 8 weeks flowering. She used to be an outdoor plant and had to be moved indoors due to someone snatching my main cola. I have 6 23w (100w) Daylight 6500K (cool natural light) cfls. Is that enough for one plant thats 4 1/2 ft tall? And, are those the right lights to use for flowering? If not please let me know what I should change it to, and how many you think I need? I have read that I need CFL's with around 3000K for flowering, I have also read that the ones I have will work. I dont know what to believe.

i think they say "warm" on the package. you can get em in alot of differente wattages. 23, 26, 30, 42, 65. for one plant you're better ioff going with the lower wattages (because they're cheaper) and surrounding the plant with them. they lose alot of useful light with distance so if you had say 1 65w bulb above the plant you're not going to get enough light to the lower buds.

Ok, now I have 2 23w daylight 6500K lights and 6 23w soft white 2700k lights. The 6500k lights are pointing down on the colas and the other 6 lights are scattered and surrounding the plant. I have atleast 4 weeks left to finish flowering. IS THIS GOING TO DO IT? I did see a 150w (46w) 2700k cfl, it was huge and cost 10 bucks for one. WTF? Should I have gotten those? Let me know if what I have is enough or if I should change it up.

cfl's take longer to flower. the higher wattage the better but like i said earlier they get pretty expensive as you go up. couple of those 46w would just speed it up a bit. just get those little ones as close as you can without burning it, like 1-2" away and see how it goes for a week. if the growth seems excessively slow get some of the higher wattage bulbs. i missed that it was a 4ft tall plant until now. is that pretty cola in yur avitar the one that got snatched??

The Heat? you mean just keep it above 75 right? The cfl I saw was at home depot. It really is huge! The coils on it are about the same size as a coke can (as big around and as tall, CRAZY).
