Mornin. Just an update on my grow, and a few pics of the lite board I built using 9 100w CFL'S. Its day one, so we'll see how it works. I had to pull the 400w HPS out and am going to use it in the flower room.

i odn't think those are 100 watt bulbs. i think they are the floresent equivalent of 100 watt incondesent bulbs that makes them like 28 watts each.
a 100 watt floresent is realy big.
plants look nice.
Thnx. But at 1700 lumens each, is that ok? Thats 15,300 lumens. Will they grow ok with that?
I think if you used those in between the plants, mounted on a pedestal, from the floor.With maybe a 400hps, or a t5 for top lighting you'd have a winner.Ahh, just looked closer at photo.HPS was prolly burning them, those Tek lights are nice if you could afford them for top lighting.
THNX, BUT I AM POOR. I HAVE TO USE THE 400W HPS IN THE FLOWER ROOM NOW. WAS SOOO MUCH CHEAPER TO BUY CFL'S THAN ANY OTHER HID LITE, AT THIS POINT.
dude that should be plenty of lumnes. i love cfl's and i odn't care what anybody else thinks aobut them. they are good news
OMG!!! I JUST CHECKED WITH MY "MENTOR", AND REALIZED THAT I NEED TO SWITCH ROOMS AGAIN. I WILL POST NEW PICS OF THE LITES AND OF THE NEW LAY OUTSW. THIS SOOO SUX. I AM 5 DAYS INTO FLOWERING,, I HOPE THIS DON'T FUK 'EM UP. LATE
