man im stoned and i lost my post some how. i know i typed it and posted it. i thought it was in this thread, it was about this thread so if you see it anywhere tell it to get back here. it said something about newport..

ok lets try it again, ya nothing spins my head like a newport 100 after a j. sometimes i can't even finish the port, gotta put it out.

it so much easier than dealing with all the heat from a HID. my temps stay down and i have high lumens in the right spectrum theres no reason you can't get the same buds from cfls that you get from HPS. jmo

the only downside to that is that by the time you add alll the money you spent on cfls you couldve ended with an hps with higher lumens. :aok:

Beautiful lookin buds bro! Did you use a mix of 6500K and 2700K, or just one spectrum?

slowmo77
08-19-2008, 01:45 AM

i used 6 cool blue neutral cfl's for germin and first few weeks veg. they more in the spectrum needed for veg as i understand. now u said u used floro's for veg and cfl's for flower... wat kind cfl's u use? i'm curious cus also as i understand is that mj needs more the yellow red spectrum durin flower to get it right...? or did u use the same cool blue neutral daylight ones all the way thru flower. im goin indoors this winter and was considerin the cfl route due to stealth and heat probs wit hps etc...

for veg i use a mixed spectrum 3 6500k floros and 2 3000k i think. or something like that.. i know its 3 blue and 2 not so blue lookin lights.

as for flowering i use all 2700k cfls. the blue is no good during flowerin. i wouldn't try to flower with regular floros unless i just had to. also you see ppl say 5k lumens per sq ft but if you can get more add them if your usin cfls.. the more the merrier. jmo hope this helps
