some say that the amount of watts per square foot is between 40w and 60w. So your numbers will have to be based from actual watts and not what the cfl's are equal too. It should but it wont be nothing big and dense but kinda fluffy like :peace:

no. you need atleast 150 watts of warm cfl for flowering. I use about 250 watts of cfl per plant in flower myself.

still, 65w 2700k bulbs at homedepot for 15$ each are hard to beat, please if anyone can find a cheaper way of getting more light from CFLs, please let me know... i'm really talking about CFL output per $
