Like the other person said its a waist or power. if you grow in 2 inch pots you could grow around 6 to 7 herb plants under a single 26w CFL. You could use a 13w LED panel to grow with.
You really need to have a system that once you harvest another is but a few days away to make veggies work. I've got a 400 watt setup and am trying to get to that point. My 400 watt system will have 3 or 4 different 10 gallon totes that will cycle through each stage and keep food fairly constant if it goes as planned.

Sounds good but why didn't you get 2 400w HPS lights?

HPS spectrum is better for flowering, not vegetation. Is the ballast digital to be able to put a m/h bulb?

one thing that i am SUPER curious about but i havnt tried yet.. just like growing marijuana, if you put a pepper plant on 24 hour fluorescent(blue spectrum) lighting.. if that will prevent the pepper plant from starting to flower. if this is true this would be INCREDIBLE. that means you could veg a pepper plant and make it beastly before it flowers. this would be amazing specially for plants like bell peppers! someone needs to try this!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'll be happy to try this out if I can germinate some pepper seeds that I have.
You will need to find a sunny location, or you can use indoor grow lights to make up for any lack of sunlight.With only a small area, you can grow a reasonable amount of vegetables, fruit, and herbs in containers.
Carrots, radishes, peas, red cabbage, lettuce, strawberries, and chives are just a sampling of the crops that can be planted using a little ingenuity.Almost any vegetable can be grown successfully in indoor container gardening.

I bring a few different pepper plants in every winter a few are a couple years old now. THey are kept under 24hr flouros. For me they usually flower around jan, feb. But you won't get peppers unless you take a que tip and pollinate from one flower to the other. If you don't want peppers and just want to grow a tree out don't pollinate and the flowers will eventualy just die off and no peppers will be produced. But I love my chili's and peppers so I keep em going!

I personally keep in my tent two kiwi plants (male and femal) a clementine orange tree, a few different herbs and just recently started a guavo tree.

So you can grow pepper plants from seed under 24/0 light and they will produce peppers as long as you pollinate them?I bring a few different pepper plants in every winter a few are a couple years old now.

Grow plant according to season. Take easy care and make beautiful indoor plant. Bring a touch of southwest. Make temperature according to the plant or keep plant in its suitable temperature. Keep plant in the morning sun light and take out at the noon sun light. Watering the plants at the morning. It is the best time for watering. Before watering sure about that how much water need to that plant.
