Hey, Today I asked my friend to pick me up some CFL's. He got the wrong ones so I'm wondering if 3 23 watt CFL's that put out 1600 lumens each would work. I'd thought I'd just ask before I go back to the store and return them. It's for Veg.-
 
sounds good, but remember, the more the better!
if its the 6600k then your good..
instead of returning to get another kind, just keep those and keep adding bulbs
 
id say warm whites good for flowering..
i havent tried mixing lighting, but id say itll benefit the grow more..
id say save those that you got and start grabbing varieties..
 
Wellll, I ended up cracking one while setting up my new Veg Box. Soooo, I'll just return it and buy the right ones. I feel like I wasted a thread. Sorry pals. Thanks for the advice though.
 
Try to get the 42W CFL's; you can get the 6500K Daylights for pretty cheap online. 1600 lumens is not much at all...
 
Okay so now I have two 42watt 2700k cfl's. Will that be enough for one plant? I have a 26watt cfl with 6500k I could put in if it's not enough.
