Cfl

So will 3 CFL that = 23 Watts EACH be enough for 1 plant?

SHOULD I start with 1 CFL and then 2, and then 3?

This site has something called the cfl club! Those guys can tell you anything you want to know. I use the same bulbs you refer to with the 6500k rating for veg. But I use a HPS for flower. I think 3 would be good for 1 plant. Put one on each side and one over the top and change to the 2700k bulbs for flower and you should be fine. Just remember you can put the plants really close without burning them, and they really like it but be careful not to burn yourself. They are very hot to the touch but wont burn unless you are super close! Have fun with your grow~!

Okay.

So 23 watts til flowering. 3

And then change it to 43 watts aka 2700k for flowering?

Change all 3 to 2700k?

that should be enough for 1 plant at the moment but if it gets bigg you might need more

if you squeeze things in close, 3 26w can go a long ways, this 3 26w at 4 weeks of 12/12
