im about two weeks into the vegetative state and i am thinking of switching up my lights to (2) cool blue spectrum 50 watt cfl bulbs with a 27 watt sunlamp from sunlamps of american.. will this be enougn light for one plant considering each watt in a cfl is about 60-70 lumens..3000 lumens needed a day... it will be on a 18/6 light schedule.. does this sound like a pretty good set up and will it work? let me know thanks

I suggest 4-6 CFLs per plant for flowering(depending on size). This way you can cover the whole plant and have the lights as close as possible (even on the sides) without burning to maximize yield.
