that's a cfl all rigjht. you want to shoot for 75 watts of cfl per square foot of growing space.

your gona need a shitload of them bc thats only 18w and it equates to 100w,im sayin it puts out as much light as a 100wbulb but not as many lumens as a 100w bulb,a 125w cfl puts out the same light equiv as 500w of lights

It is a CFL(compact flourescent light), but check out that base, you are not going to be able to screw that into a regular light socket.

heres a quick tip to thicken,scar the trunk of the plant by makin superficial lasserations in the trunk,this can also b used for weak colas as well,i gota do this in a week,it helps to for training ur plant.
