Popped a few beans for fall run
23w CFL = 1600 lumens = 69.6 lumens/watt
30w CFL = 2000 lumens = 66.7 lumens/watt
40w CFL = 2600 lumens = 66.3 lumens/watt
compared to
150w HPS = 14000 lumens = 93.3 lumens/watt
250w HPS = 28000 lumens = 112 lumens/watt
400w HPS = 50000 lumens = 125 lumens/watt
600w HPS = 90000 lumens = 150 lumens/watt
Found this in a sticky, so 400 HPS blows away the CFL'S, but the grow space would have something to do with it wouldnt it?:rasta:

LSY,
I know when I transfer plants from the CFL to the HPS or MH light things take off. But the CFL's are great for veg and lower operating cost.

I am going to try and go CFL all the way from germination to flower. Just to see how it can turn out. I have seen some real good ones on this site.

Well thats my plan now. I have all CFL's on them. I never relized how bright they were. I only have 2 26w on them and there 2 weeks old, but there small, i mean really small. But i had them under 1 CFL for about a week and a half, now that iv put them under 2 theyve doubled in size in 4 days, but cant wait to get 4 of them on them on em. Il get a log going soon, cuz i have pics from start. We could compare notes? Oh and sorry about the double post, i tried to re word something and just noticed it happen:wtf:
