I just bought 4 4' T12 fluoros, 6500k for veg. Theyre 40 watts each and I believe it puts out 2325 lumens per/bulb if Im reading correctly, resulting in a total of 1300 lumens at 120 watts.
I noticed at home depot that there is a 65 watt FLuroex which puts out about 6000 lumens. Ive been doing lots of reading about CFLs and it seems as though many ppl are content with results from CFLs for veg, and even flower.
I guess my question is if CFLs are more energy efficient and have a higher lumen output than fluoros, why do some still go with fluoros? There must be some advantage to fluros. Input from anyone would be great.
