the more lumens the better but you need a higher light temperature light for veg growth like 6500 k I believe is what i use.then drop down to 2700 k for flower.I have cfls that are supposed to = 150 watts but they have bigger ones but id say that would work for a lil pc box.use a closet bro get some yield make it worth your while good luck either way!

I could see how lst would work and trimming plant down to compensate.Im not a seed buyer yet though I havnt tried autos.Damn seeds are high $ man! I couldnt believe the prices! especially for something id give away just as long as they let me know how it turned out.weed is free in nature only the finished product that hard work went into i see paying for.plus the security risk lol(if non medical state) im gona grab a mix pack after this grow and try some indica dominants out to hopefully stop these anxiety attacks.
