just go with the CFLs.. do a touch more research ..and you will find LEDs..just are not quite there yet for MJ cultivation...not to mention 10 X the price of CFLs..

Agreed. The only LED's that will really do what you're looking for are much more than the forty dollars you're thinking about spending. Stick with cfl's till the technology with led's catches up.
