Cfl vs led

just started a grow room. I was originaly planning on using just Led lights but then decided to add a few CFLs. As i have been reading up im finding alot of people dont like Leds for flowering. Would it be better for me to load up on 2700k cfls when i start to flower and just eliminate the Led ??? At this time HPS is not an option

IMO you would throw all of the possible light you can gather at the plants. If MH or HPS isnt an option I would put everything else I could get at it. I've grown with just CFL's...Once. Ever since then I find them great for raising babies and thats about it.

It all depends on what type of LED you have.. If you have a decent LED lamp then you can flower just fine. If you have an older, not as good lamp, you may have trouble.

Nobody (well.. I'm sure there's somebody) would choose flowering with CFLs over flowering with a good LED panel.
