I got 12 CFL 27w (100w eq) Daylight 1750 lumines, 5000k i have grow space of 3 ft high and 3 ft wide with depth of 20in. All the panels are foiled up for reflection, and i have 2 computer fans for vents 1 intake 1 exhaust. I just want to be able to smoke for free until next harvest so on and so forth. What tips can any of you give me? With 2 plants what can i expect?

pics would help! what to expect is kind of on you. you could yield a gram or an oz each plant. i would train them early keep them low. get some wyes for the cfls and train them on your budsites. going to have to move the lights and train branches every day. ive had some great cfl crops but it def takes attention. wht is your medium and nutrient line up going to be?

5000 K isn't a very good grow light you want 6500 K and some 2700 K when you want to flower.
rig some reflectors behind the bulbs, mount the bulbs so that the sides of them face the plants as that's where most of the light comes from.
