I still have a month or so until flowering but I wanted to know one thing ahead of time. I wanted to know how much CFL wattage does a SINGLE flowering plant need....I have 6 27 watt bulbs (total of 7600 lumens), would that be enough?

I currently have 1 plant under 6 2700k cfl's, 2 6500k cfl's, and 2 flouro's and it seems to be working great! How big of a plant are you trying to grow?

i believe you are using 6500K lights. The light you have is probably labeled as "full spectrum", correct?

No I have the daylight setting not full spectrum...each one of my bulbs gives out 1300 lumens

That gives me an idea, snake lights! Bravo.
You have reflectors on them?

I will have reflectors later on...maybe. The reason I wouldnt is because I can practically have any (6) of my lights anywhere I wanted around the plant...reflectors might get in the way so I just made my whole room reflective!
