Dude, Jorge says so, and Jorge has been growing 30+ years... He has tried nearly every combo known to man and states that cfl's produce loose buds. Wouldn't you believe him? I mean, these are technically true facts considering the experiments he's done. He has done enough grows to back himself up, so he must know when he published a book and video.

Got here a little late in the thread. I got a lot of reading to do. I'm growing with CFLs in a small wardrobe. Check out my album.

Roseman I think was our greatest CFL supporter.
Unfortunately, he is no longer with us.

I have used cfl's since my first grow.
They work well for those who have a low or non existant grow budget.

I am flowering out a mom and 9 clones right now with cfl's.

When I can afford it I will buy a hps for flower and use my cfl's for veg, clones, and mom's.


You can't hardly beat cfl's for veg.
However, flowering needs hps for tighter and bigger buds.

I definitly agree with you cfl for veg and hps for flowering 100%
