Can you use CFL(s) for the entire grow process?

  1. I'm doing some planning right now, and I only plan to grow one plant at a time. HPS lights are hella expensive. Is it possible to use a CFL or multiple CFLs for the entire grow process?
     
  2. yes, i use 6 CFL's per plant through most of veg and all of flowering
     
  3. yup cfls are good allt he way threw, its best too use the daylight 6500k cfls for veg and the 2700k for flower, about the least amout of light you want are 4 26 watt cfls, and that gives you about 8000-9000 lumens and most people say 10,000 lumens per plant is perfect. id suggest start with 2 plants incase one is male cuz you know 50/50 chance!
     
  4. ya im using 2 soft white 42w i think right now on a seedling n i herd its 3:1 chance female to male
     
  5. I'm pretty sure Ya' can.....I get 82 grams per plant (21 grams dried) ...and I do 27 at a time under CFL's
    Ck the grow in my Sig. :D:wave:
