I know MH is best for veg, but i was wondering if they were the same wattage which would be better for veg, CFL or HPS?
Also ebay, why does know one get their lights from it? Obviously not the second hand ones. Because i was thinking of an envirolite(see link) and a HPS

Except the 200W version for veg.
As far as i can tell they are just big CFL or am i missing something about them?
HPS is the best for veg and flower.
HPS will win hands down every time because they are HID lights [high intensity discharge] and CFL's arnt.
The lumens is what your looking for.
Lip is correct and no your not missing anything an envirolite is just a big cfl it comes in two spectrums full is for veg you can get a good grow out of cfl's but hps are better alot better
High intensity light will be ideal over any kind of fluorescent lighting. You can do okay with CFL's, but any seasoned grower will get better results using High intensity lighting.
