If The Room Can Handle The Extra Heat That 12-More Lights Will Make, And With The Main Light On A Light Track, Yes It Will Help Alot To Add The Side Lighting.

Yea man,you definantly want to add C.F.L.'s.The only advice I have is to get smaller bulbs and put a cluster of them right on the plants.I dont care to much for the bigger bulbs but I like a lot of the smaller (23-26 watt)ones.I have 6 around my grow right now with a 400hps in the center
