Default CFL Power For Mother Plant?
permalink
How much light is required from a CFL to supply a single mother plant? How much wattage and whatever other specs are needed and how many bulbs per mother?

Hi Paola,

it depends how big your mother is. You should consider using at least 1 - 150 watt cfl (43 watts) per 10-12 inches of plant height on a mother...

The fewer CFLs you use the more lanky (space between nodes) your mother will be.

So a 150 watt CFL will cover a 4 foot plant?

I misinterpreted. You're saying that the 43 watt CFL is equivalent to a 150 watter. So each 43 watt CFL covers 10-12 inches. Gotcha.
