...................8 cfls...
if you can't grow properly with CFLs, you can't grow with HIDs...
HIDs offer more lumens... but HIDs do not make somebody a better farmer or more in tune with their plants... it is actually harder to have a successful HID grow than a successful CFL grow...
that being said.. ripping on CFLs only proves ones inability to grow properly with HIDs

heres my pure cfl grow, also my 1st ever attempt to grow anything
used mainly 250w of cfl across 4 ladys now added another 125w red and 250w blue so total for last few weeks of flower is 625watts in a bid to fatten these fuckers up properly.
day 33 flower:
this was my first grow, wid TWO twenty three watt spiral cfls, 2700k and 5500k, only flowered for bout seven or eight weeks...didnt get shit out of em tho, bout twenty grams off two plants. it was sum good tho...round two is gonna be killin shit, i kinda like CFLs
Looking oh so good! I hope mine look somewhat close to that in 10 days, though you have 2x the lighting heh.
What are you thinkin, 20+ more days? They should fatten up more. Exciting
and this is what you could of done with a 250 hps (same amounts of watts, look and see if its the same amount of bud)heres my pure cfl grow, also my 1st ever attempt to grow anything

actually its way less wats he used 125 to veg and the 250 to flower, not 250 and 625and this is what you could of done with a 250 hps (same amounts of watts, look and see if its the same amount of bud)

im trying to help people who are wasting money by using 625 watts to grow buds that a 150 hps could do, thats almost 500 more wats...12 hours a day, thats 6kilowatt hours a day,,, you do the mathThe title of the thread is Show Off Your Buds... Not let's see what HPS can do. Why are you posting here? What are you trying to gain?![]()
See guys, ONE 23 WATT red bulb and still got enough to smoke...That's success in my eyes. Good job and good luck on your next grow
Nice pics, I like the colors you got
The blue gatorade? have you tried the red yet?for nutes i used cat piss and old lunch meat... and gatorade for the flush
