Ive seen some excellents grows with cfls only and have also seen some skimpy ones. I think cfls are the way to go for your first grow or two, maybe you could sell some of your crop to enhance your grow the next time around. If you can grow a bud and get high from it, thats sucess.
SantaClawz Reviewed by SantaClawz on . Will CFL's and a T5 work just like a HPS? I have a 2 foot T5 fluorescent light bulb sitting under 5 plants and im going to switch to 12/12 soon and want to have more light to help my babies thrive. My question is that if I keep my T5 and include 5 or 7 150w cfl's will that work just as well as a 400w hps lamp with a reflective hood?:rastasmoke: -Thanks Rating: 5
