Hello,
New to the forum. Id Like to know when figuring lets say wattage for a 20 square foot grow space do you figure the wattage using the actual wattage of the CFL is Using Or its compared Output?
example
20 square feet 50 watts per foot = 1000 watts you would need bare minimum. If you have lets say 15 bulbs at the CFL wattage of 30 watts a piece thats 450 watts or do you go by its equivalent which a 30 watt puts out an equivalent of 100 watts so you would have a 1500 equivalent?
Thanks everyone in advance!
