Im just growing 1 plant for now, and for light I use 1 26w fluorescent bulb and sunlight. And a small cabinet with fan.
I wanted to know if I could use just a couple more of the same lights when it gets bigger and for flowering?

definitely dude, i've been using a total of 3 26w cfl's start to finish - here's a pic of what you can do - this plant did have a lot of reflector though

Growone no offense but I doubt you just used 3 26 watts for that. You can say you did but I honestly know you didn't. And to the OP you should pick up some higher watt cfl's (65) atleast maybe 4 of em. That's about 10k lumens right there. Good luck

you will get a lot of answers, mysticlown's answer is reasonable, 10000 lumens is usually considered the minimum
but the more reflector you use, the less light bulb needed(to a point)
