That's two entirely different questions. Yes, you could veg, but no you couldn't flower and expect a decent yield. Microbuds closest to light, at best.

ok thanks for the honesty because i had my hopes up so now i need to know what i need to get some at least desent amount of yeild...when it comes to flowering and when my plants get bigger how many cfl's should i have because thats about the only thing i can afford right now i think...because aren't mh and hps really expensive...anyone tell me what i need to know. and if anyone has any like bargain deals on lights that they have found that would be cool too. :thumbsup:

look at some of the LED threads going on....since using them my plants have never been so healthy and much easier to care for since they are photosynthesizing the light better!

Also the up fron investment of a good LED light will pay for itself in the long run in energy savings, no cooling fans venting heat to deal with and replacing MH/HPS bulbs! JMHO! :thumbsup:
