Hey flowzies, welcome to cann.com :thumbsup:

Yeah you can use them spirally energy saving ones, otherwise known as, compact fluorescent lights (cfl for short) ;)

HID will give bigger yields and denser buds but cfl are a good alternative if you don't want the expense and heat issues that HID have.

Most of the cfl's that I have seen have been 6500k Daylight and 2700k Soft/Warm White. That's in the U.S. though. :jointsmile:

Your Rep is disabled somehow. Go up to your User CP and, on the left, click Edit Options. Now, there is a box that allows you to show/hide your reputation level. Check the box... and wait for that sweet sweet nectar of virtual goodness. :hippy:

Edit: Either that or it's because you have no soul :stoned:
