Hello,
I am going to be starting my first grow very soon, i have a some autoflowering seeds coming from Nirvana. My grow room that i have set up is about 2 x 3. Right now i have 3 100 watt CFL lights and about 5 smaller CFL's, not exactly sure what wattage these ones are. My question for you guys is how much lighting do i need? Temp regulation is going to be a problem so i wanna make sure i am not putting too much light in there to heat the thing up, but yet i want to get a very good yield so i am assuming i will need a decent amount of light. Let me know about your experiences and the yields you guys have gotten off of your styles, thanks much!!

Are they 100 actual watts or equivalent? In a 2x3 I'd say 250-400w of light would be enough.
