Ok i am going to be growing one plant indoors and here is my setup-

(2) Long flourescent tube lights in one of thoose black ballasts
(1) 14=60 w CFL w/ 900 Lumen output (I have 3 more but i will put them on when the plant grows bigger.) The CFL is also in a reflector.

Do you think it will be good enough? IDK what specs the two long tubes have, but they are just the regular fat flourescent lights you see in buildings like school and such. The CFL is resting on a cardboard block and on the FL and points directly at the pot i will be using. The FL rests on two CBoard boxes and is right over the pot about 4-5 in away and the CFL seems to be a little over five. Its kinda hard to get the light close though because of the reflector. Pics soon hopefully. Oh yeah, i also have a heater on there, it will be set on the "fan" option.
