Default flowering with cfls?
ok so i have read all kinds of threads now on cfls and how they work. i am just wondering if 258 watts are good enuph for 2 plants in a closet 4'x2'x7'completley wraped in mylar. right now i have 1x43w and 2x42w flowering bulbs in there now but i want to pick up 3 more and just wondering if its worth it? my plants are taking up all the closet and im not sure if lights getting all the way down to the lower buds. my stock is like a tree tho. i will try and post pics if you need but just need some advise from the experts. p.s. my house already has power issues trying to work them out

i used 720w for 1 plant but she was a monster, i'd say 400w would be a number to shoot for for 2 smaller plants

yo man-if you want you can flower your girls with even 3 cfl lights, but yes-get so many as you can get.and 4 flowering it is good to use yellow spectrum cfls, with lower k-s, something like 2700 and that.
