Ahh i see your point. I guess i was just giving him what he NEEDS to know...when those plants get of any real size he's gonna need more light. So i was more or less saving him some trouble in the long run.

Since we're on the subject on how many light bulbs to each plant I thought I'd throw in my scenario. So far I have 4 27w daylights and 4 23w soft whites and 1 95w full-spectrum. Would I do average if I grew 3 plants in me stealthbox? The height of the box is only a few feet so I'd probably have to scrog it well. Don't mean to ninja the subject at hand just thought this was a good opportunity

you have me beat huh?....then an expert like you should know that you need more light...GOD you fucking people...wake the fuck up....it's about your lummens... the more you get closer to what the sun produces, around 10,000 lummens P/SQF...the better your plant will do.

I'm not too sure about the light requirements, but I grow 2 plants with 2x42watt cool white and 2x42 warm white and each bulb produce 2800 lumen. I'm 3 weeks into flowering and all looks good. I guess it's just different strains have different light requirement, and the plants are able to adapt to the amounts of lights given to them...
