Hey. Im new to this. Im looking at setting up a 600w flowering room, with four plants. I want a perpetual grow, so will clone plants just as theyre going into the flowering room, and put them back into a veg room.

How big would my veg room need to be for the four (maybe 5 or 6) plants?

Also, what wattage CFL would people recommend for this veg. room space? Thinking around 100w?

Please and thanks,

For 5-6 plants 1 million watts of cfl. Your going to need a lot a cfl's for that many plants. By the time you get there it is going to be as hot as a 250watt MH. Cfl's work good for one or two plant's. T5's might be better for you. A 400 watt MH will be good enough 3-4 IMO.

T5 fixtures are really reasonable now days you should make the investment. Malicifice's advice is spot on.
