So Im about to have approx 2-3 plants in a small closest grow(starting from seeds). And would 2 23 watt 2700k Cfls sprout them until I get paid in a week and a half and can buy better bulbs?

Also would they last for the entire grow? I know I would need more of them later on. But this is my first one and I want more of a learning Experience the a lot of bud. I want to make my mistakes now without spending a bunch of cash. Then the next time around I'll have a better feel for what I'm doing.

2700k is best for flowering, you want a daylight 6500k or similar for veg. I have read that red/yellower light can help with root growth in clones but havn't heard much more on this.

I use a 4 bulb vanity from Lowes (~ $20). I mix 2 Daylight + 1 warm white + 1 Repti-Glo (for a few weeks root development), then replace with another warm white.

Lower wattage bulbs to veg higher wattage to flower; you can buy 300watt equivalent for ~ $15
