using fluorescent lights with hydroponics?

Okay ive grown before but used a heat lamp my snake used and didnt work all too good but now tat i got my own place i can start up again now im very tight on money so a hps or mh light is out of question so im thinking fluoresent light i know its good for veg period but can i use it during flowering and yea i have a grow space of 2x3x3 so wat wattage is best for that space and im using the water culture method i learn it in school im growing 4 plants from seeds there germinating right now

is your grow room 3 feet tall? Don't think that'll work...

I would suggest getting 3 of those 2" long fluorescent lights that hold two bulbs each. Make sure to get cool and warm tubes.

You can grow all the way with fluorescents but your yield will suffer.

I'm 2 weeks into a grow with a dwc system I built and i'm using 4' fluorescents. I'm hoping to run into some cash so I can get a hps light before flowering. Hope you can do the same.

Happy Growing!

when you start the grow make sure you keep the lights as close as humanly possible to keep them from stretching... i like using the lil spiral CFLs because u can have a shit load of mounting options...my grow is two by two by maybe five feet, using CFLs and a couple of those t5 joints check it out, its called the McGuyver Grow
