I have a plant that is in the flowering cycle and the time is 9 hours on 15 off. I want to add 2 more CFL's it would be a total of 220W. I want to know if that would be to strong because of the hours.

its been a long time sence iv read up on anything, but i belive your plant need 12 hours of light for the plant to get the energy it needs to grow while lights are out. i could be wrong. but yes the more light the better.
