alright, dont listen to me. enjoy your 1/4 (dried) of fluffy bud......for good plants u want 10,000 lumens at least. that is what everyone reccomends as the minimum for a decent yield.

Every time I've been in the 10,000 range the result it solid nugs. I would have to agree, plants grow really fast under enough light.

yeah it comes with like a 10 foot cord i think and yes it has the light socket attached. i think it was like 4 bucks not 100% sure i saw them when i was looking for adapters that u plug into a socket in the wall than screw the bulb in

Lumens do not add up like this. There are all kinds of threads on this topic. Watts however do.

If you have 4 100 watt cfls, then you have 400 watts on the plants. If each cfl puts out say 2000 lumens, then you still only have 2000 lumens for the plants.
