I have a cabinet a bit larger than a PC tower, just over 2ft tall. I want to grow 1 easy ryder plant. Would 3 20w energy saving cfl bulbs (3500 lumens) be enough to start this off? I live in the UK and that seems to be the most powerful bulb available in shops. I have found a complete 125w cfl grow light for £40 online, which I would imagine is a better option but funds are a bit tight at the moment! I can fit a 10 litre bucket in the cabinet also. Thanks
I think it would be ok. I would try to keep the plant as close to the lights as possible. 1-3 inches max
