This is obviously my first grow. My grow room is 3ftx3ftx5ft. I have 3 20watt cfl's and two 48" flouro. My plants are almost three weeks old and look beautiful. Atleast i think they are. They are about 4" tall and bushy, With two sets of leaves. They are well ventilated and watered with nutrients appropriately. Will this be enough to get them through flowering or no. What are my options for a poor mans grow?

no... either get a bunch more cfls or just invest in some hps. the investment is worth the reward good luck

I did a grow about a year ago with just two 48" flouro shop lights. Went from start to finish and it turned out ok. Nothing to brag about... but it did work.

just buy a hps trust me all the fucking around you will end up spending the same amount
400w hps start to finish and you will have sweet buds
