Hey, sorry if I'm over-asking questions...recently I've been convinced to go with the cheaper CFL option rather than an expensive LED light because I'm a new grower.
I know I need 6500K Veg & 2700K Flower.
My small grow box will have 3 square feet (2x1.5ft).
I've read so many different things on how much lumens per square foot, that I don't really know what to do.
I'm looking at 200W/2800Lumen/6500K and 150W/2800Lumen/2700K.
I'm thinking 6 CFL's of 2800Lumen at a time. 3 Reflectors with 2 CFLs each.
For Veg: 4x 6500K + 2x 2700K
For Bloom: 4x 2700K + 2x6500K
Will this be sufficient, too much, too little?
