you're going to need at least 100w/plant. you can use the 2 27s but youre gonna get like 2 grams of bud off of a 2 month investment. if you are going to do it, do it correctly. i have 265w of CFL for my setup of two autos see my sigbongsmiliebongsmilie

You want more wattage and get a different kelvin color, go with 6500k for vegging, try to toss in one or two 2700k to bulk up your covered spectrum.
