Hey has anyone used one of these before http://pxhydro.myshopify.com/products/compact-fluorescent-system-with-dew-guard

i have a grow space of 63h 24 d 35 w i will be doing a scrog grow. I want to have that light on the top of the plant. I will then have 2x2 2ft t5 lights on the side. That would give me enough light for a blueberry x og kush hybrid plant correct?
Are the larger cfl better then a bunch of smaller bulbs? Any help or advice gets you plus rep :fire:

do a google for your lumen per watt ratio on each light, if you are using the t5HO's for instance, they get 92.6 lumen per watt.

That would be enough wattage for one plant but it is 6500k and you should have a mix of both 6500k and 2700k, heavy on the 6500 in veg and reverse for flower. I think you nailed it in your question, more smaller bulbs. 42w are the best value. About 4 of them for you, 3 6500 and one 2700. You can put the in large clamp reflectors and either hang them down or clamp them to the sides. You can use Y adapters and put 2 bulbs in one large reflector. You can get 4 bulbs and 2 large reflectors for that $, and maybe find them locally.
