I have a simialr question I have a 26Watt CFL but it says for everyday use and on the package it compared it to a regular lightbulb. Is this CFL like any normal one or is it bad?

Get as many of thoose cfl's as you can in there. A 26w is a normal bulb. But you are going to need a shit load of em to go from seed to flower. 2 150w cfl's is not going to be enough get at least 4 of them. The gerneral rule of thumb is 50 watts per square foot 2 will only be enough for a 2'x3' area and that is still pushing it!

i've had my plant since about july and i was wondering could lack of light be the reason why my plant hasn't fully flowered yet? I've been using 2 15-25w CFLs at 15off- 9 on cycles and my plant has about a gram on it,

I had a simular problem. I purchased a 250 watt HPS light and after running that on a 12/12 cycle the plant is a totally different plant. Buying the right lighting system will make a huge difference for you.

You dont have to but you would get bigger buds since they like the red spectrum during flowering. But in the end it is all up to you. If you got more light it would make a huge differnce.
