do you mean 100 incandesent equivalent or 100cfl watts?

becuase if its a 27 or whatever watt and 100w similar incandesent your gonna need wayyyyyy more light than that. my plant has like 7 100watt cfls and thats barley enough

you need minimum about 3000 lumuns for vegging.
a 20 watt CFL gives out about 1000 lumens that means about 3 for each plant minimum
