I need some Help with lighting

[chillumpuffer]

Hey wats up, this is my first grow and i am growing in a hollowed out computer shell. I am using a 18 inch, 15 watt flourescent with a day light. I just wanted to know if this was enough lights, or should i add some CFL's? The lumens on the daylight is 590, which is low right?

Thanx for any1's help!!

just know that that is a super small space, what do you really expect to yeild. I'm not trying to be rude but that space is way to small to even consider as a grow area. Good luck with your grow.-GG

go with watt 30-50watts per sq.ft. you will probally have heat issues with this small space but cfls work well.. also you wont be able to grow tall enough for an 8th let alone more, maybe a bowl if luckey, but please prove me wrong and post pics of your sucess.-GG

Alright. thanks for the info. But do i go with the 40 watts that give out 150 watts? Or those ginormous ones?
