Would a 25watt full spectrum led grow light, with 3 60watt cfls be sufficient for 1 girl??

It will grow but doubt you’ll get much in the way of usable bud the 25w led grow light may as well be dumped as I doubt it’s even 25w from the wall

Ehhhh maybe a little girl

 

[Psalm]

Ok ok , what’s the bare minimum on the light? I won’t be doing more than 1 girl at a time .

 

[mysunnyboy]

You’re doing just about the bare minimum.
The more you add, the denser the buds.
It’s really up to you and what you can handle. Don’t forget more light means more heat.

What you trying to achieve? Like I say you could get away with what you got but only a few gram If that

[/QUOTEok appreciate that

If money is tight buy a t5 fixture you can buy them for 100bucks with bulbs online .

Or buy a used 400w hps ..you can find these fairly cheap as well...

Just want to learn best process

Personally can't see its worth the effort for anything under 200 actual Watts but they will still grow of course.

So 200 is sufficient for 1 ? That’s what’s up

Yes

200w of light is just fine, Depends what you want, how you growing? 30w a sq. ft. is ideal, but you can do well with half that. 60w daylight cfl is equivalent to almost 240 w of incandescent. Biggest cfl we have is 23w, unless you run those gigantic growlight size, Yours? If you have the special cfl grows with actual 60w (not equivalent) you will be able to grow a big one. On the other hand if you are running 60w equivalent cfls (18W) then well yes they will be small. For an example, we grew a low yeilding Strawberry Kush plant with 2x 23w daylight cfls, and got 3/4 oz. of dank Strawberry bud. Normally yeild 2.5 oz in the growroom, but bud finished great. Grow cost like 10 bucks including clone (free), equip and hydro. Still takes 10 plus weeks of flower though....

 

[mysunnyboy]

Don’t forget to get the correct temperature of the cfls. Red spectrum for flower and blue for veg.

There are some good mini grow and cfl thread on here btw
