Dual Spectrum CFL
I am trying to figure out the lighting which I will use for my first closet grow. Due to heat/ventilation/cost issues, I am leaning towards CFLs. I recently came across this dual spectrum 125 watt CFL in which both blue and red spectrums are displayed out of one bulb.

Has anyone had any experience with this type of bulb? I was wondering that it wouldn't be as effective because both are coming out of the same bulb? should i just go for strictly a red spectrum?
would a 125 watt CFL be enough to cover 1 or 2 plants alone? or will i have to buy supplementary bulbs?

Dual Spectrum CFL
Hps is a better bang for your buk, that cfl costs 119.99 and has 8k luminens i would recomend min 2 that would give you 16k luminens 3 would be a better choice with 24k luminens but that would cost you 360.00 not worth it check this site out www.htgsupply.com on the front page they have a 400 watt kit for 164.99 that comes with everything you need and 2 bullbs, hps for flowering, mh for veging its great deal, now compare the luminens, 2 cfls which in my opinin is the min you would need for flowering 1-2 plants is 16k the 400 watt hps has 55k with that amount of luminens you would have a yeald that the cfls would not match
