HOW MANY PEOPLE USE CFL AND HOW MANY HPS OR BOTH?

[MegaOctane12]

The mothers sat under 125W EnviroLites 65k/blue natural daylight light Just enough to encourage slow growth over the flowing period

The fresh clones sat under 125W EnviroLites 65k for a few weeks

The rooted clones sat under (x*600W) HighPressureSodium HID throughout their 2-3 weeks of veg and 7-8 weeks of flower

We seldom use Metal Halide HIDs of which we only have 1 250W MH bal/bul/ref lighting system

I think the light discharge from EnviroLites looks similar to CFL. We use CFLs above the propergators but the root development is slow. Prefer EnviroLites

I'd say for the light penetration of the bulb, Environlites are pretty expensive, their like a last option if you can't run an extraction fan, just running a small occilating or pc fan around the bulb reduces the heat enough, you don't get the penetration you would with an HPS or MH, that's the only down side.
