I'm using cfl and it says 100 watt replacement using only 23 watts does this mean each bulb is only 23 watts?

"IT SAYS"? Funny I never heard a lightbulb talk...LOL! Just messing around.

What that means is that it will put off the same amount of lumens as a 100w incandescent...1600 I believe. It is lumens not necessarily wattage (although wattage matters as well) you are looking for in a grow light. The more lumens the bigger the bud.

And BTW...

Welcome to RIU, and the wonderful world of cultivating the world's most misunderstood and feared medicines!!!

The only 'advice' I can give you or anyone is to read and learn and then apply what you have read and learned to your garden and you cannot fail. Anyways, remember the search tool is your friend...Lots of folks here willing to help a new farmer get up and growing. But at the end of the day your grow will be only as good as the knowledge and work you put into it.

It is always great to ask questions but do not take anyone's advice or opinions and follow blindly. And remember anyone may have a well-known member status…but that means they have posted and responded to many threads and does not always mean well-educated growerz. Do your own research, you will be much happier knowing you have done it for yourself and by yourself. The first buzz you get from your own budz...is by far the BEST high you will ever have!

Do a search using your current question as the keyword(s) and ZOOOM!! Like Wonka's Great Glass Elevator…off you go to tons of threads answering all your questions. Read all the Newbie Central stickies and learn…

Soaking up all that information and sifting through it, is going to take time. You will likely finish your first grow by then. Viola! grow complete and education well under way.

You will increase results if you build a reflector for your cfl bulb. Better yet build a reflector housing that takes several cfl bulbs with junk you buy at goodwill.
