Hi recently i started to grow some plants and at the moment they are growing great. I am growing under 2 40 watt cfls and 2 floodlights one of which is a 120 watt and the other is 90 watts. I was wondering if that would be enough to support a whole crop of 4-6 from sprout to harvest?:leaf::leaf::leaf::leaf:

your flood lights are going to be red spectrum so its good for flower. what spectrum are your 40 watters? any way you look at it, you have enough watts for veg, but you want quite a bit more for flowering, like twice that at least

At the moment they appear to be responding well to the light they are givin but im concerned with it being a problem down the road. but the light spectrum of the cfls is cool white.

welcome to rollitup :)

like beef said, sounds good for veg but you want alot more lumens for flower. remember you don't just want your plants to grow, you want them to flourish :joint::)

Yeah i agree with the posters above, add a few 6500k bulbs if you dont already have them, during flowering i take my girls outside to get some sun, helps with the lighting issues and makes the buds that much better, good luck with your grow :weed:

Right now the plants are pushing 3 weeks old so I should be okay running the lights for the next 2 months. I would only run into problems once it starts budding correct?
