Hey Yeag, for early veg, like up to 6 nodes, I'm a big fan of 4-foot tube fixtures w/cool white bulbs...line up the girlies under them and watch them grow! IMO cfls are kind of a pain in the rear and I've tried them but jsut said the Hell with it and I only use them in the clone closet now... later veg there's a little dinky MH250 that works fine, by the time the plants are under it they are almost ready to flower anyway.
Now somewhere on the boards there's a cool reflector made of a street sign.... seems simple enough to take a piece of white-painted metal, fold it into a batwing shape, drill some holes to accept the CFL sockets, and go nuts.
