Attachment 276820

Looks like im using 26w cfls to me. If you see the one thats topped, that had stretch to it. Maybe 6 in way from lights. I prefer mine dont get alot of stretch in veg. They get plenty of that when they go under the HPS. So I stand by my comments of having the cfls as close as you can without burning them. I had to pull the light bar out of the way so i could get a pic so they look further away. Maybe 2 inches away when its in position. Sorry EZG for putting this on your thread

Dont take my advice and call my crazy but im doing the same thing I told you too and my results speak for themselves. From what you guys are saying and telling him it doesnt sound like you run 26 watt bulbs but probably 400-1000 so you shouldnt really be giving him advice at all. Yes the basic principles are the same but i`ve done both and their extremely different. I mean cmon with 1000 watts what you pull down in 3 months is nothing compared to what happens in 3 months under a CFL. Two different worlds bub.
