if you guys like giving money away pm me and ill send you my adress
You know, I feel like you must not grow too well yourself. Because you clearly don't have weed, or the stuff you have sucks. Because if you had some, you would be high, and if you were high you wouldn't get so damn worked up over what lights some random dude on some forum uses.

If you love your Hps so fucking much.
tell some one who fucking cares coz i dont Hps is a waste of cash when growing one plant . And if you done YOUR home work than you would see the Mh R7s Under water bulbs 2000k have 11000 lumens per a watt but they only come in 50w -70w-150w

Primera, you usually don't have too much negative to say. What gives? Why rip on other people's methods? For most of the people that use CFLs, HID is not likely an option. I bet my closet's temperature (in an apt that I can't go cutting holes in for ventilation) would have averaged 100+F with a 400w HPS. Bottom line is that we should support each other whenever possible. Ripping on someone for the light they use is childish, inconsiderate, and assinine. Don't do it :peace:! A guy growing 10 5 foot plants with 8 candles and 5 LED flashlights should be treated with as much love and respect as the fellow using 25 1000 watt HIDs.

Anyhow, back to the purpose of this thread. These pics are 57g I took off one of my plants. This plant had about 23g taken early (80g total off this plant). Total harvest from two plants = 127.8 dry grams. Check out the grow for more pics. If you can't read the scale the top cola finished at 20.9 dry grams.:peace::blsmoke:

cfls do work i never said they didnt.. but when some one is using over 600 wats of cfls... thats just rediculous... and just to let you know cfls put off more heat than hps per watt... i have used cfls.. and they really arent worth the effort you have to put into it, like constantly moving lights. i just think people have a misconseption about hps and how how they get too hot, yes, they will get hot if you have a 400w in a small unventilated space, but a 150 watt hps is much better for a small grow than cfls

a 100W light bulb uses... 100 watts... a 42 watt cfl uses.......... 42 watts... and a 150 watt hps uses.......................150 WATTS

a watt is a watt

Thanks for clarifying. Sorry for coming down so hard ;-) I did my grow with 400 - 500 watts of CFL's. It was my first one, and I'm certain I could have grown more plants with greater yield had I had more experience. Moving the lights around does suck - bad. The hottest it got after I added a second fan was about 81 degrees.

I recently read a journal from a guy using a 600 watt HPS in a closet with ventilation. He struggled to keep his temps under 95 - 100 degrees. Proper ventilation is requisite with HID, not so much with CFLs. I have no clue if I could have pulled 4.5 ounces with a single 150 watt HPS, but my gut says no. Can anyone find me grow that yields 4+ ounces from a single 150 watt HPS? All this said, when I move and buy a house in about a year a proper place to set up a couple of 600 watt HIDs will be very important in my purchase decision. I don't think there is much debate on which light is better as long as they are both options for the grower. Take care primera!

That grow is crazy primera! I don't think my skills would allow me to do that right now, but it definitely lets me know I should try to be more light and time efficient next go around. I'll still likely use the same lights, but with some different techniques. Like I said, once my space is conducive to a proper HID grow; that is route I will go. Thanks for the inspiration.

wow that plant does look great for 1 cfl... notice how i added "for 1 cfl". Most people on this forum have read enough to know that they can grow way way better buds with hps.. and that cfl's will get you lighter nugs that r not near as fat... but this forum is about CFL BUDS not is an HPS or CFL better.. make your own thread if you want to start a debate about that but stop posting in this forum fuckin up my precious 20 min while being blazed and i wanna see cfl buds and all i can hear is primeralives talking about how much better hps is and showing us videos of it.. lets see PICS of CFL grows not videos of HPS's you stupid ass.

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 math
oh how about this mate, i dont care how much the electricity costs il pay it as i do with all other houshold bills, my conditions dont allow an hps im in a cuppord with no ventalation hence the need for these cfl's. heat is simply not an issue for me at all in my setup, which is ideal as my place is always very warm, and i think that these cfl's are doing exactly what they say on the tin for me anyway, some fatt ass percy smoke
