No I don't think it is enough but it depends on how big you want to grow them. Cfls are great for starting seedlings.

You might want a 250 watt or even a 400

But if you are going to go with the cfls then I suggest getting one daylight blue and one GROWLUX. It will give you a nice balanced spectrum.

You can go with 2 growlux for flowering or keep the daylight. Just switch the plants around a bit if using the dual.

As the lady says^^^^^..T5's are 2 x 22", with reflector & hanger for $69...at HTG supply..
the red flowering bulbs are about $20 each...plain flouros, won't do much good..Check out a hydro store, and get a proper grow light...
