I used to get offended when people said that CFL's weren't good. I do disagree, but I also agree. I used to grow with an MH for veg and HPS for flower, and you do see a great difference but they CFL's work just as well.
OH, and btw CFL=Chronic For Life. ;)

They work fine, however if you want bigger yields you need bigger lights. The density of the buds is better as is the lower bud sites because the receive more penetrating light.

I have used 300+ watts of CFL's and 250 hps. The 250 pretty much won hands down in flower.

Your never going to convince anyone who grows with mh/hps or even t5's that cfl's are better for growing, they will work and get the job done, but not nearly as good as hid lighting. I use 2 125w cfl's for my seedlings and clones before they are vegged under a couple mh, but for those who cant afford better lights or power or heat issues cause problems by all means do your thing however you have to...peace
