Well that amount of light will do you just fine if all your looking for is a crop that just gives you some weed to smoke for personal amounts.
If your looking for a grow to get you a yield to sell.....cfl's aren't going to get you there.

Depending on where you live, you might be able to find a nice cheap used one on craigslist.com. I find a lot of cheap equipment on there. A week ago, I saw an add for 2 1kw switchable ballasts with batwing reflectors for $250 (for both!!!). Just check the "farm and garden" section.

Not always, man. I've seen many people obtain great results from cfl bulbs, myself included. HID lighting is always better, and sunlight is better than that, but he's working with what he's got. He wants to learn how to do this before investing a bunch.
And putting a flowering plant that is federally illegal in your window is just a horribly bad idea.
-------------------- My best run so far
