Hi Everyone,

I am currently one week into flowering with three 28 watts warm cfls and one 28 watt coll cfl - total approx 14000 lumens i think. Just one plant.

Is the above going to give me some descent yield/bud or should i move the plant outdoors under the sun and let the sun make the buds?

It gets about 23 - 25 degrees avaerge celius in this part of the world at the moment ( auctumn/winter).

No deers where i live - just insects but i can controll that...

thanx

Ok iunderstand i may have my lumens out of wack - but can you tell me then if what i have is enough to flower - i guess thats my question

3 x 28 watts warm cfl
1 x 30 watt cool cfl

With cfls the more the better.You can put them along the sides and that means more light more lumens.The thing with flowering under cfls it dose take longer to harvest and sometime they want to stretch.So you have too keep the lights close to the plants and adjust them every day so not too burn them.You can flower under what you have but I would get a couple more for flowering. well thats my two cents, Peace

To answer your question... No, I wouldn't expect much of a yield. If I were you I'd use ten times that amount of bulbs, but then you might as well just get yourself a HPS.
