This is one of the many I've been looking at. Being a magnetic ballast makes it a bit louder then a digital, but much cheaper and rebuildable.

As for Veg-ing under CFL's I've seen many pics of successful grows this way. Issue is once it reaches a certain size and the light just can't be close enough to the entire thing. You'll want to move to flower. As for which CFLs, Go with a mix of 2700K (lots of red) and as high as you can get 5500k or 6500K (for lots of blue). The higher the wattage the better. :thumbsup: Our girls like lots of blue spectrum light to produce foliage.

How big is this flowering closet going to be? Must be a walk in?
