Good luck harvesting over a gram, need to get some bigger WATTAGE bulbs (i.e. 45 watts +) most use the 65W or even 100W kind, (actual wattage not incandescent equivalent)

I use 12/12 with CFL from seed to harvest, I was using 43 watts that equivalent to 200watt. and I had about 8 of them going. and just check out some regular light bulbs sites out there. my lights were like were 10 or 12 bucks each

You can get a 16 pack of 23w 2700K CFLs at home depot for $21. That plus some Y splitters and a couple clamp lights should do you well. The bulbs come with a 9 year warranty ;)

I grow 12 / 12 CFL from Seed. You won't get big yields unless you have the higher wattage lights, or a bunch of the low wattage lights. I'm running 4 x 65 watt CFL's (the 300 Watt Equivalent) I just got in my 100 Watt CFL's ( i think they are the 6-8 hundred watt replacements) but any ways... the actual wattage is what your shooting for .. not the equivalent. I'm waiting on my adapters to come in the mail .. so i can change the lights from mogul to medium socket size... they are freekin huge ! 12 / 12 from seed is good if you can grow SOG... or Scrog in a small area. I'm thinking about doing a party cup grow, grow out like 20 seeds and hopefully get about 5- 8 Fems with a nice little cola per cup... you can harvest a nice ounce or two that way.
