250w HPS, allllllllll day before I would go cfl......totally different light, totally different yields.
[quote name='"PassTheBong2Me"'] wats so bad about cfls?[/quote] Nothing. Use em, you'll be happy. /thread
I use eight 26 watt bulbs to veg 2 plants with wonderful results. Never flowered with 'em tho, got a 150 hps for that job.

I recommend 26 watt bulbs personally because they pack the most lumens per watt for a cfl bulb (last I checked anyway) and multiple bulbs will cast light more evenly over a larger area than a single 300 watter will
i would personally personally recommend setting up as many 1000w HID lights over your grow area as you can fit! but 1 250w hps or 300w of actual CFL will do.
