your going to need at least 4 of those 26 watters. do not go by the wattage equivilant. that is equivilant to incandesent bulbs brightness, not actually wattage. go by the actually wattage of the cfl. u need at least 100 watts per plant. more is better. especially with cfls.

now your talking. if u set up 4 of them u will be set. think about using soda cans as reflectors if u cant think of somethin better, cheap and effective.

good idea, i was thinking about using reflective aluminum, i work in a sheet metal shop, i seen some aluminum that looked like a mirror, i have all the tools at the shop to make a nice reflector.

i would use pleated aluminum if u can. that shiny of a surface will create hotspots and burn ur plants. i also have some strawberry cough goin.
