but if you have asequate ventalation and space i would go with a hps ,,,
but yes in answer to your first question ,you can add cfls to help flowering the more lumens the better
zipflip said:so your saying that when i switch my cfl's all to 2700k for flower that my 16 or 18 26watt cfls will be alot hotter than say even a 400watt HPS?
i'd really really love to go HPS but no gardening hydro stores round here and i dont have anyone else i can ship it to for me an i aint havin one shiped to my home lol. i can trip a lil further and find a lowes home depot watever just do they sell anythin along line of a 250 - 400watt HPS that i could use or modify to use effectively. just my space is small but if it'd be just as cool or cooler than teh 16 cfls i got now then...
idk i get so thrown around mentally when it comes to that cfl vs hps an mh vs this vs that lol... but i'll take ya word on it that my 16-18 cfls are hotter than a 400w hps.The Hemp Goddess said:"an
Yes, your 16-18 26W CFLs are going to put out more heat and far less lumens than a 400W HPS. You are operating under a misconception if you believe that the HPS will put out more heat. The bottom line is that watt for watt and lumen for lumen, CFLs will cost more to purchase initially, will cost more to operate every month, will run hotter, will produce significantly less lumens, and produce less bud that a HPS.
LOL--There is absolutely no reason to be afraid to have a light shipped to your home. Millions and millions of people order growing supplies on line with no consequences. I have always believed that you are far safer having things sent to your home than having to tell a friend to have things sent to their place. I am also way more leery of local hydro shops where overzealous LEOs (little Barney Fifes) can sit and record license plate numbers.

HPS is better for flowering. I already had these though I got from a consignment deal.:hubba:
