I use 12-27 watt 4100k spring bulbs for my 2' x 3' space and they seem to be growing well.

thanks for the reply ..1 question when you take cuttings from your mother how fast does the motherplant regenerate for the nxt load of cuttings ?

I am too new and don't know the answer to that, but I would think that you don't want to "strip" the mother plant clean of all her vegetation. Only take what the size of the mother plant can handle losing and still stay healthy, unless your plans are to get rid of her. And her regeneration and health would dictate the amount the next time and so on.

Maybe someone more knowledable can chime in

That would depend on how big you let her grow and how many cuttings you take. If she is in a 5gal DWC bubbler I think she would come back pretty quick.
