This can't be right.

  1. These are under a 4' flourescent fixture with two 32W bulbs in it. T8 bulbs I think. Either way the lumens listed for them add up to 5500 lumens.

    I started these in a 5 gallon bucket to try taking cuttings. I figured the flourescents would let them grow but not get too thick...

    I still plan on trying to do some cloning but I was wondering if this would be enough light to flower this plant after I'm done with it because it will be too big to put in my flowering cabinet. Or perhaps if I put another fixture in there, would that be enough? They are only 43 bucks.
     
  2. 64 watts for flowering? No, not enough at all. Even 128 watts is pretty weak for flowering, not to say that it can't be done if you have no choice. How many plants? What color spectrum lights? Are they yellowish/warm or really bright? Look into CFLs for supplemental lighting

    check my floro/cfl grow in my sig if you want an idea of what floros did in my situation.
