I have used it for my previous grow which is on here, if you click on my profile and view threads you can see my old one and current one, there are pics on there. I changed to a red 250watt cfl to flower but the 300 watt is very good for vegetation. You can lower the lights, if you can put your hand on top of your plant and your hand doesnt burn your plants wont, so use that as a rule of light height when using cfls. Lst is low stress training, you can also find a thread i posted on that on my profile.

Hope everythin is still goin good with the gyals!
