Plant reveg - light intensity?

Does the intensity of the light matter? I'm asking this because I have a bubba kush that I'm about to harvest but I have 0 room in the veg area for it as those slots are being filled by younger and different strains. I do however have a space I could put it under ~25w CFL light bulbs. There could be 3-4 put around the left over pieces and if that's sufficient for the flip back to veg. I know intensity of light is helpful for better veg growth but in this case where there's about a month of waiting before you first see new growth, can you get away with using lower intensity lighting if timing is all that matters?

Are you planning to reveg this Kush plant? From the stump?

I left a few small lower buds on and have it by a bulb. I'm not sure this will work but I'm going to give it a try.

MRS. Marijuana Regeneration System. There's a book and it's helpful. Most is probably online. Did you seal the stem well?

Some people prune the root ball back, i just watch the watering and smell for root rot.

I usually leave 1/3 of the plant. Water thoroughly then put under 24 hour 2-3 4ft t5s until normal growth appears. Smart pots help me to not have to cut the root ball. I would say the biggest issue people have with re vegging is over watering/ over feeding. If done right it works everytime. The thing is some strains really aren't the same after.
Cheers :)
