Dude i really appreciate the reply in all, but if i was going to use hps or metal halid or a GOOD cfl, then that would mean i could afford the elec bill now wouldn't it? witch is why i posted this in the first place cause i was concerned even about just using what i have already,.... all i can use is 4 t12 3120 lumens 4100kelvin .......its all i got.....all i can afford. Also ive researched just growing from start to finish using flouro tubes and turns out i can but! i wont get much yield but the buds will still be danky witch is totally fine with me,.... thanx anyways dude still..... i appreciate your effort to help^^
