Alright, it was either here or the light section...
I recently purchased an 18 watt flouresant tube, warm light. I was expecting it to be a little brighter than it is... It's... well, not too bright. I bought it to give future clones some light to be able to root. About how many lumens would be sufficient for them? I'm GUESSING the light I bought is probably 700-1200 lumens... This light came prebuilt into a ballast and all I had to do was plug it in. No lumen statements on the box whatsoever. I was expecting a much better lumen output until I turned it on. Should I return it or would it provide an adequate light amount for clones? Thanks all!
