Hi - yes you can add the other light to make stronger lighting.
Do whatever the label on the product says.

If you can get more lights more power to ya. CFLs never gave me the yield i wanted, you should try looking into a 250w MH or HPS if your only growing a few plants. A scrog should work for your situation as well. Think about it before your next grow.

You still need more lights for one plant. I'd use at least 3 of thoses 45 watt cfl's. Make sure they are 2700k for flowering tho. I also have a smaller box that I scrog in. Works wonders and you can find out all you need about it in the newbie forum. I would also not use mg past your first transplant. Gives the plants a wierd taste. Good luck with your ladies.

It really doesn't suck per-say, It does have a tendency to burn for those who over use it. I've used it and had really good results.
I've used it on my first and second grow, w/ moderate results (except I was inexperienced and seriously burnt 3 plants!!! haha) but I noticed a HUGE difference when I gave AN a shot on my 3 & so forth!
