Lighting Is this good for 5 plants? 2 x CFL 65WATT High OutPut - 6400K

[I<3weed]

Hello,

I'm growing at the moment a Purple Cheese and a Diesel - will add Onyx and Speed Devil + Magnum shortly.

I already have 2 T8 Growlight Tubes -

and I just bought 2 of these : http://www.normanlamps.com/product_info.php/products_id/3567

the salesman told me each one of these bulbs is equivalent to 300WATT's of a normal bulb (they are energy savers)

so thats 600 WATTS + the approx 150 I have with the T8 totalling to 750+ WATTS!

Will this be sufficient ? Does anyone have any clue if these lights will be enough to take me through the whole grow?

Thanks alot!

T8 lights don't give out alot of lumens so they wont be the best. Those two cfls might be ok if you have some good feflectors and your grow rea is lined with mylar or painted bright white.You could try it and if it seems your plants are stretching you can always add some more smaller cfls.It's not so much the wattage but more about how many lumens the lights give off.
