when i turned the lights back, i was using only the cfls for flowering....then added the hps. 2 out of my 3 cfls are blue, so probably wouldnt be enough light in the corredt spectrum for flowering. it was either buy more red spectrum cfls, or get the hps which wasnt too pricey.
you see i dont have any reflectors for the cfls, and a lot of lights was going to waste, so i thought the hps might be better
