if your growin under 4 plants you can go with a 150w or 250 watter. if ur growin u need HID(highintensitydischarge) CFL dont have nothing on HID .if you want big buds go with HID
the fan leaves start dying off in flowering.if ur seein colors you might have a lil nute burn. but that lil girl looks good.....start a grow journal
 
Yeah only doing a single plant not trying to get too expensive with the stuff, i mean i would love to but im broke right now. Do HID come in like bulbs or tubes? all the other leaves besides the cotyledons are a nice healthy looking green. But I will check out some stuff thanks for the references. Also I feel like it is taking awhile to grow its only about 3 inches tall. Should I keep em on 24/7 light for now? And the two fan leaves above the cotyledons fall of also?
 
man CFLs are great you just need more and wat cesar said is it really 100 watt or just equivalent, if it is only a 27 watt u will need alot more im growing wit CFls now and these are at 3weeks i have one 85 watt and five 27 watts
