Thanks for the info. I'm just starting buy lights and have 4
fluorescent tubes. I'd love to have what you've got, but I think I need
to call in an electrician and have another circuit dedicated to my
growing area. Sigh. Sometimes I think that raising polo ponies would be
a cheaper hobby. I wonder if anyone ever keeps track of how much their
hobby costs (plants, plants that die, bark, etc.).

That one grows under a combo light... 400 W Metal halide AND 400 W HPS.
800 Watts total. My brightest area. It needs bright light to bloom. I
actually had the plant for close to 20 years and only bloomed it once at
about year 15 (guessing). Once I got the brighter lights I bloom it
regularly. Twice in 8 months this time.
Of course I was a beginner when I got it and had no idea it needed more
light than my other Catts.
In another part of the basement I have a 400 W. MH light and 12, 4 foot
fluorescent tubes right next to it. I can bloom ALMOST anything there.
