This is my first grow...I am 2 weeks into flowering 4 female plants right now. I have 14 23 watt cfls (2700K) 2 26 watt cfls (6500K) and 2 65 watt cfls (2700k).
Do you think this is enough light for a good yield?

Bottom line is without HID the yield and bud density will be less, but still a good free weed.... More light = more & better weed..

Despite the previous answer... since you didn't ask about HID's...

As far as CFL's are concerned I'd say you should be good to go for a nice personal yeild. Clearly more light = more weight.. but there are also many other factors including environment and feeding. So if thats what you have for lighting great.. use it to the best of your ability and make sure the other factors mentioned above recieve as much attention as you can :)

If you were planning a huge harvest.. maybe CFL's weren't the correct choice of light source.. however for just 4 plants.. I think you'll be fine :)

Hope that helps,

Yes that will be enough light.. Just make sure that the lights stay within 2 in of every part of your plant... AKA DONT JUST HAVE TOP LIGHTING!! have the lights surrounding/ engulfing your plants w/out touching them! it will pay off.. you can still have Awesome yields w/out stupid hid lights you just have to have a good eye for the placement of your lights!

LETS SEE THOSE GIRLS!!:mrgreen:

come check out my grow :joint:

From what I seen by just looking around on the net. At least 2 23 watter per plant are enough to grow a plant well. As long as you know alittle something about growing you can get a nice yield, look up lollypoping, topping, and LST all good things to use when growing CFL's to increase yield. With your light setup you can use them throughout the whole cycle and get a decent yield. GL
