and would this make it so i can use a 100 watt cfl in a regular household like a regular socket cuz the bottoms on the 100 watt cfls are smaller than a regular bulb now would this work for that? if not do you know what does?

I'm no pro by any means, however I did just begin my first grow a month or two ago. I built a box and I'm using CFL's. I have a good suggestion for you that someone on this forum passed along to me and it really did help. Go to barnes and nobel (or order it online) and buy "See More Bud's" book about growing with cfls. Its a personal day by day journal to growing with cfls so you can compare and learn as you go. The book is called "Marijuana Buds for Less" by SeeMoreBuds. Its only like a 15 dollar read, with many helpful tips.


My personal opinion is, your gonna wanna go somewhere other than that website, try a local hardware store. I clicked around a little on it and I couldnt find anything worth your time. I would NOT go with anything lower wattage than 23 or 26W cfls, I WOULD recomend something like a couple 42W blue spectrum daylight CFLS with 2700 lumens each (For growth) and for flowering go with 42W warm white CFLS with something like 3000 lumens each.
