I have not tried flowering with cfls myself seen some nice pics, ill give it a go one day
i have been using them recently over the last couple of years
for mothers, i think they could produce some good bud, but the footprint is tiny, once you get them like 2 inch from the plant (125w)
you can see they are putting out very good light at that distance but only for about 6-8 inch of penetration
with a footprint of 1 to 1.5 sqft
i would only attempt to grow tiny little plants with them, or a very well controlled screen of green
if you can keep the colas short like 8 inch max i think they would do well, would be so tedious though lifting the lights up every day as they grow

peace :)
i am flowering with cfls you have to get certain ones red spectrum for flower white for veg but they do produce good buds from what i can see i have had to bend my plants to get the best result so they get even lightView attachment 2420736View attachment 2420738View attachment 2420740

Its not even a question. If you can go hid go hid, cfl's do not match up in yield, even comparing true wattage. If i can get the same quality running the same amount of watts, but get up to 3x the yield from hid, i'd do that.

there is no debate.. nobody thinks cfl's grow crap bud, they just have a crap yield. they cannot penetrate like an hid it would take many strategically placed cfl's to try and achieve this.

@AMCHEESIER looking great fella. they stinking up the gaff?
cheers fella, they stinking up good now, im thinking the 2 toke is blues dom, theres a blue-ish tint to the leaves, the qq is just starting to colour up a little at the tops and the pk in the scrogg is lemony but i wouldnt say lemon pledge lemony more understated lemon if u get what im saying. they going really well just wish i could find them an indoor home as the cold is slowing them down. the 2 natural growing pks will deffo be the new yr for harvest but really happy on a whole.

sounds like you've got a good mix of the pheno's, shame it's not the lemon pledge, (i've been looking for that one in the pips for ages now, but fred has gotten the cut back :hump: )

no way you can get a heater or oil radiator in there? something with a thermostat?

mine are bounding along fine ta, next bits are due 20th Dec so should have a good crimbo at least lol. pics shortly

i bought 2 small tube heaters to go in but i didnt trust them enough to leave them in there, because i couldnt fix them anywhere suitable enough and was worried about burning the plants and the place down. the only other thing i can think of to do is to make a tray to fit the tent fill it with sand and run soil heating cables through it and sit my pots on top. ill be better sorted for next winter thats for sure!!

the Columbian black, was so tall the tops weren't getting light so i've HST'd it, though i think i may have put a hole through the stem when bending it, i've taped it and we'll see how it goes lol...

think i know the type you mean the greenhouse ones that bolt to walls etc, get yourself a pallet and make a stand to screw them to. sand on the floor sounds like it'll be a reet arse about. in days gone by my grandad used to use a baby oil lamp in the greenhouse towards winter, but i guess naked flames in a shed isn't going to help you sleep at night lol.

no i doubt id get any sleep with something like that lol. and i havent got room to make a stand for the heater really the plants are wall to wall although i could maybe knock something up and hide it beneath the scrog screen there is a little bit of floor space.

And the show trundles on. QQ - Smelly looks real nice lad.
that it does matey. won't be massive weight off any of those barring the cheese as they were competing for light with the last lot. should still be enough for a nice crimbo.

Hey Conkz! yeah the Dam age was great fun. hard on my feet but cool to meet a load of great peeps on and off RIU. the booth design was all Mrs DST, who did a stellar job. she has the eye. we have the red eye.....

didn't meet anyone famous really. well other than jigfresh DST, westy and Duchieman. :) the shows were a mixed bag ghostface killer kept playing half songs then talking shite inbetween them which was annoying but MF DOOM was pretty good. though after standing all day on a stand we were all pretty knackered. still out on the tiles til 1-2-3-4 o clock lol. i'm too old for that stuff now.

the gardens coming along a treat, perpetuals gearing up so i'm a happy chap. the QQ isn't exactly one toke knockout but it's no slough either lol.

that bong looks awesome conkey. i've been looking at bongs recenmtly thinking a crimbo pressie to myself s in order ;) i want something with a showerhead perc, 14mm, i've really missed my Ehle bong, my boss broke :( shitter about your volcano but thank god for warranty eh!

keep it irie Conkz ;)


now theres an idea i hadnt thought of i could hang them with tying wire i suppose, cheers don!! i cant see the floor at cannopy height if that helps lol
not just a hat rack me ya know :lol: well......
