cfl setup , 2 bulb

i was wondering if a 2 bulb setup would work,
i only have 2 lamps so im only ganna use 2 im broke.
its a cfl setup and the bulbs are pretty expensive and i know exactly what to do

been growing on a window sill for awhile and ive allways lived in a house where there has been it growing somehow lol so i do know about it i just wanted to know if 2 bulbs would work, will post some pics soon

thanks

2 bulbs would work. It depends on the wattage though. Most people use 150W + CFL's

Im assuming your on about small bulbs though. In that case for vegatating (and assuming you dont want a huge yield) 2 x 36W bulbs would work but for flowering you will need quite alot more power.

I use 3 x 26 W bulbs, thats 78W which comes to like 475 W equivilent. This seems to be working really well at the moment for my plant so i dont see why it wouldnt for you. As for flowering you will need more power.

P.S I only have one plant going so thats 78W on one plant.

Also for maximum efficiency keep the plant 2 inches of the highest part of the plant.

yeah i was worrying about the power thing i got 2 75watts and 2 plants but one is very small as i have just grown it on window and smoked that lol so thats prettty small but i have like a 2 footer aswell of G13 amnesia (made it myself ) so thats a pretty nice plant but its been outside for ages without any attention we hid it and forgot about it for nearly 2 years and only cleaning up the garden i find it . i got it reppoted and all trimed and pretty but its ugly.
so i wanna get that under becoz of the strain

if your gona use only 2 lights get the 42w (150 replacement) i use 2 of the 42w and 1 26w (100 replacement) for each of my plants and they are doing really good
