Hey guys I am new to this forum. Just a little info I have 3 beautiful Lemon Kush Babies Vegging out right now been growing for about 6 weeks been showing alternating nodes since week three currently about 7000 lumens from CFLs. I am building a flowering box to finish them since they are currently in a little closet. I plan on using around 10,000 Lumens for the three plants during flowering. Is this adequate I am using several different nutrient/vit regimens now Ionic Grow for soil and Dark Energy they look awesome and I am excited to flower. I plan on using Ionic bloom during the flowering stage and keeping up with the dark energy. Any tips comments or suggestions are greatly appreciated.
Thanks

you wanna figure out your lumens per square foot. to do this add the total lumens being used, divided by the square footage of your grow space.. keep in mind lights will become less effective the farther the are from the plant. I believe you want 4-7 thousand lumens per square foot. some even say 10,000 per square foot, but for smaller grows around 5 should be good. keep reading and take a look at some of the rubbermaid growbox set-ups people have on here. they are supposed to be cheap $100-$150 total or so??
