Hey is this cfl the right colour temp

Maybe for a seedling, and small veg, but it is high temp (more blue light), so it doesn't have the red spectrums flowering prefers. For a micro-grow, like inside a cabinet space it would work fine, I think for a single plant veg. But come flowering, you will want something lower temp for red spectrum light, 2700k-3500k. Also the more light the better, get a couple

Also will I get much of a yeild
I have heard with CFL you could expect under 0.5g/W, if no problems along the way. But idk, I've never flowered with CFLs before.. curious tho

I will do a journal keep posted
Also depends on if you will be training them...
Topping, LST, SOG etc... Lots of tricks out there to maximize yields. When a plant grows natural, untrained, it tends to have more of a christmas tree shape, making one large cone and bunch of small flower buds, training the plant will bring those smaller bud sites up to the canopy so they grow more evenly. Basically.
