thanks for that advice i was about to get rid of it cuz i was using 60 watts before and didnt have a fast grow time so i thought 20 wouldnt do anything for my plant

this light is actually better than your 60 watt indacascent stick to flourescnet until you have the money for hid, enough four or eight foot tubes can veg lovely and even flower alright. it all depends on how far you want to go

bro this is my first grow and i have the same exact setup and tubes. i used it alone for the first 4 weeks and now that im in week 6 i added 6 cfls just to brighten it up a bit and my plants seem to be perfectly healthy and growing nice for the small space they are in..you should be fine..once your plant starts maturing more you should probably step up your wattage if you can. more wattage= more tree..this is coming from a rookie though so dont take my word for it hhaha...good luck on the grow.

hell yeah it would. the plant is gunna grow really no matter what kind of light as long as its on most of day( i prefer 24 hr.) ..but if your looking to get your pound game up you might wanna go with sumthing a little bigger....yuup born and raised where you from?
