is this an acceptable cfl setup?

[memyselfand420]

I was just wondering if this is an acceptable light setup for a single plant ?

You will grow weed. How much will depend on if you add more light for flowing. Keep lights close like 2 to 4 inchs away, try to add a reflector like a aluminum turkey pan from the super market, do some LST.. The light your have will veg it and get you some buds. Remember more light=more buds so if you can add twice the bulbs for flowing you'll have a higher yield.
good luck

And most importantly periodically check that extension cord by touching it make sure it's not getting too hot if it is get a heavier-duty cord, safety should be your first concern.

 

[Mr.furley]

On third look, the cord and plug in socket kinda worries me watch that closely, if not replace it altogether.

Thanks for the input. I have 5000 lumens right now. How many are suggested?

 

[Mr.furley]

With Cfl you almost can't add too many. I would dbl. That to 10000 lux. Heres is a couple good links

I use about 10k lumens myself, but it generates a lot of heat in enclosed spaces. I agree with furley. You should be very careful connecting too many lights to single cord. Invest in several and pit them together in a stable way. Safety first !!!!

I plan to buy more bulbs for flower so i will get more cords then. Thanks for the knowledge.
