Alright ppm just wondering if any one has tried hanging 2x 300w cfl in a 80x80x180 grow tent? Was thinking about it I've got one already up with a few seedlings under, just wondering if its worth hanging another light, for when there a bit older so I can throw a couple more plant under.

You are going to need at least a couple CFLs to mature your plants. I would recommend getting even a cheap lead grow light to flower your plants as CFLs really don't have the power needed.

Yes you can use 2 CFL if they fit, but can you deal with the increased heat.

They won't give off that much heat will they
Them big 300's can get hot, but if it's only for veg you can get away with a little more heat. I use 1 big 300 for veg and flower in a similar sized space and hot weather can cause heat issues. What extraction have you got?

you can, but your gonna need more of cfls, mt last grw was all cfl's, just gotta watch the colors of them and the K value. You can actually do a complete grow with cfls as well.....
