    For 2 plants that should go nice. About 100 actual watts a plant.

    Mixed spectrums seem to produce positive results; compared to a running just one kind of light.

    Mixed spectrum is great. Keep in mind that with CFLs your area of intense light exposure is relatively small, so you won't be giving the plants an all-over blend of multiple spectra but rather a patchwork of one spectrum here, another spectrum there. Rotate the plants, or the lights, every day or two so that each area of the plants gets exposed to the different spectra.
