Quick Question?

Would 6 23 watt Cfls be enough to do 4 NL clones. I was going to use all 6500k for veg and all 2700k for flowering?

You'll probably be able to veg your clones under that lighting, but I think you might struggle to flower 4 plants with under 200w. It can be done, in theory, if you really manage your grow and either SOG or ScrOG them. Is your box (or budget) too small for additional lighting during flower?

You'll have more success with just the two plants, but even then I'm not sure the lighting you have will be sufficient for a decent yield. You'll have to train them well to expose them to as much light as possible.

What are the dimensions of your grow space? If you can fit more bulbs in, I suggest you do, and your plants will thank you for it in the long run. The great thing about CFLs is that they're cheap, and you have time to save up for a few more red CFLs for when you start flowing.

I'm afraid I don't use FF nutes so I can't help you on that one.

if you are going to use that few bulbs you really need to LST or scrog them... oh I just read what SunnyJim said so yeah do that. think about low stress training as another option. stay high
