My first grow! CFL questions

[Jammy473]

I will be starting my grow 1st june, when I get home from uni So far I have an 85w cfl 2700k and an 85w cfl 6400k, I am planning on buying one more 2700k 85w bulb.

I have 2 questions really, how many plants would give the greatest yield with these bulbs? and should I be using all 3 bulbs for both flowering and vegging? or leave out the 6400k for flowering?

cheers!

Don't think plant number think the size of your canopy, or in this case canopies. You can fit CFLs in all around the plants as close as you can with out touching them. As much light as you can use is best.

2700k FLowering
6400k Veg
Some people mix them, I don't believe its needed. Keep it simple, its worked this long.
like Bud said, as much light as you can get is needed. Are you going to lst? or scrog or top?
Alot of little things that will effect your grow with only 3 bulbs

I use both 6400 and 2700 for vegging and flowering. A dual spectrum is best. Anyway it works for me.
