Flourescents wont work,especially cool white. Since your on a tight budget you probably want to get some CFL's.They're cheap and you can position them pretty well to for light penetration and such. Your buds are deff gonna be fluffy, but with CFL's instead they might be a little tighter.

Also if they're getting to big have you tryed trimming them back some and topping them? It will give other branches more light,as well as you can keep it's height maintained. Plus it will let other branches break through to the top to try and become top colas from all the extra light
RideTheWave Reviewed by RideTheWave on . flowering with flourescent bulbs? Ok so my babies have been vegging 24 7 for almost 5 weeks and are getting to be a decent size. I guess i broke a cardinal rule by not having everything already in place before i started my grow cause i dont have a flower light. Funding just isnt comin along for this led light for my little flower room and my babies are gettin a little too big for their little closet grow britches. I am using two 4 foot, 2 bulb flours from walmart. I have one standard walmart grow bulb and one cool white 3050 Rating: 5
