Fluorescent setup?

I just finished assembling my lighting setup which includes 11 CFL's and four fluorescent tubes. The total number of watts comes to 668, and the total number of lumens comes to about 48,000 lumens. The grow space is six square feet. Will this amount of light suffice? Thanks in advance

is that equivalent watts or actual? sounds good! post some photos, how many plants? ppl say 100actual waters per plant with FL but i saw nay. if ur actual wattage is that, i would prepare to add or reposition cfls all around the sides of the plant as she gets taller. cfls are good close distance so make sure u can light up the side especially well

There are 668 actual watts sorry. There will be four plants under it. Right now there are only three pots but there is room for another easily. You can't see the four fluorescent tubes, however they are right above the hanging cfls. 2012-07-31 22.54.10.jpg

Looks good but the amount of money you wasted on all them CFLs you coulda got a 250w hps or some four foot fluros instead and get better results
