  8. this question isnt for me but a freind, lets say he wants 1 plant, in a box that we are going to make, how many watts/lumens should he have, and remember the space is limited, how close can fluorescents be to the plant?
     
  9. well cf do get hot so u have to watch how close u put them to the plant. If you place the back of your hand where the plant is and its too hot for u then its too hot for the plant also.Id say 2-3 of thoes 40 watt ones should grow you some recepctable bud, but the more the better. if you are worried ablout space go with some 2ft tubular ones. I grew with thoes and you cant litterally put them right on top of the plant without it burning up.
