Default CFL Lightning Help, First time grower
Im gonna start my first grow in a little bit my grow box is 3ft high, and length and width are 1.5 ft . im going to be using CFL lightning cause i dont have that much money. im only growing 1 plant, just 1 plant. iunno how many bulbs i need cause its cfl and diferetn watts. i was thinking 2 on the sides and a big powerfull 1 on top that i can adjust distance from im only doing 1. the top light i was thinking getting a 100-200 WATT cfl, and the side ones just like 25 - 42 or something like that is this a decent amount of light for growing in the vegeitation stage. what about flowering what should i do or change my lights out , still keeping them CFL to get good flowering. TY oh and i need a lightning fixture for my lights any help or links to homedepot and shit is gratefull ty

Well, make sure you get the right cfl. It has to put out the right color light. Blue light (around 6500K) for veg, red (2500K) for flowering. Check out the GrowFAQ on fluorescents also.
