    Hey GrassCity. Just looking for an answer to what I should light my mother/clone tent with. It's a 3'x2'x5 1/2' space, DIY style. Anyway, I'm stuck between whether I should get a 125w-200w CFL w/reflector [ame]http://www.amazon.com/Hydrofarm-FLC0125D-Fluorescent-Light-System/dp/B0006HRQTK/ref=pd_sim_sbs_ol_4[/ame] or a 2' 4tube floro set (24w a bulb) [ame=http://www.amazon.com/Hydrofarm-FLT24-2-Foot-Fluorescent-System/dp/B002JQBQZQ/ref=pd_sim_ol_55]Amazon.com: Hydrofarm FLT24 2-Foot Four Tube T5 Fluorescent Grow Light System: Patio, Lawn & Garden[/ame] . . . What do you think?

    I'm just looking for opinions on which you think would be better, I plan to keep 2-4 mothers and some clones, before I toss them in the flower tent.

    85 views. . . Doesn't anyone have an opinion? I feel like I'm leaning towards the CFL.

    Get the 125-200w, 4 weak bulbs are a waste of time.

    Thanks man, I think I've settled on a 150w hps though, only 25 more watts; plus it's the same price.

    Agree . The higher the wattage the higher the lux .
    Well... not always... 200W HPS/MH will give more lux/lumen than same wattage CFL
