Whats going on people... Without the funds for a HPS light during flowering. If i start my plants of with 2 CFL (40W) lights during growth what else could I use for the flowering stagpe. These lants are for me and im really not looking for a huge yield just trying to feel things out, before I invest in real lighting... I only have 3 plants so not many sqft.

Thanks

Add one more CFL for your veg.

Quick questions:
Do you know what spectrum your CFL's are?
How big are your plants now?

No less than 2 per plant when you are full on budding.

(HPS) HIGH-PRESSURE SODIUM LAMP - High-pressure sodium lamps operate by igniting sodium, mercury and xenon gases within a sealed ceramic arc tube. Sodium lamps emit light energy in the yellow/red/orange regions of the spectrum; the red spectrum stimulates flowering and fruit production. Many indoor gardeners switch to sodium lamps when it is time to induce flowering or fruiting of their plants.
