Where can i find CFL's in England?

Hello to everyone at rollitup
After doing a lot of research and taking into account money,time and other variables i have decided to use CFL's for my first grow!

i will be growing 5 feminized PPP plants but im not sure how many CFL's i will need and where to get them, can you guys help?

I live in England so please dont say 'Walmart' or 'Lowes' as we dont have them here

i did however manage to get 3 14w 2700k warm white cfl's, if i got more of them would they work for the flowering process?

any and all help is apprieciated

Have fun looking, oh, and if you don't like that place, just google, uk + lighting

Homebase have some. B and q have some. Screw fix have some ( 20w for 1.93 ). They arent high voltages however. But if u order online get ENVIROLITE its good get off this place - delivers in UK for good prices. Has BIG WATTAGE CFLS. Good place good service good people. Got me quickly in london think they are in manchesta not too sure just a good place.

Peace

I'd recommend at least 125w and at least 2 lights should be ok for 5 plants but obviously the more the better. A friend of mine only uses 1x125w for 4 plants and they seem fine

also you should try to get the dual spectrum ones if you want them for flowering

thanks guys! i think i will pay a visit to homebase and B&Q tomorow, if they dont have the CFL's i need i will order them online do any of you know how much i can expect to yield from 5 ppp plants under cfls?

or get the daily mail tomorrow!
