I purchased 2 separate cfl's 1 for veg and 1 for flowering both are 125w, should I have brought less wattage but gone for more bulbs? will using 1 cfl bulb the entire grow be ok or will buying a cfl reflector help???? I can't really afford to buy any more cfl bulbs atm so...

1 bulb is enough for a pc grow. If you're going to get a reflector, check it fits in the pc case first. Cooling will be the challenge.

just make sure the roof of the pc case and walls are coated in reflective material and u wont need a reflector it will just use valuable space

Will do, It's the Antec 1200 Full Tower gaming case, plenty of space dimensions are 22.9" (H) x 8.4" (W) x 20.2" (D)
Will be starting a grow diary when all my bits and bobs get delivered :)
