I agree, 80 - 100 shitty little CFL bulbs or 3 x 150w ENVIROGROW CFL's veg with 2 blue spec and 1 red then when flowering swap to 2 red spec and 1 blue, failing that I'd say get yourself a 400w hps you'll be saving money from using less watts, get more lumens growing better plants and creating huge hard stinky heavy buds, ENVIROLIGHTS are good for 2 - 3 Plants typically, household tiny cfl's are good for 1 - 2 plants max, so in my opinion you'd be much better off with with a 400w hps you could scrape by with a 250w hps but only if you lolly popped and weaved your ladies through a mesh...SOG/SCROG I think its called, I am only growing 2 plants and am using a 600w hps ....Quality is everything and with a 600 so is quantity
don't scrimp by invest a little and reap big rewards - STELTHY
I'm not sure I would listen to anybody that makes a blanket statement like this. Fucking HPS would burn your Penix.
No fuck you KBRoaster! CFL's will work but at that lower wattage bulb..you'll need a lot to get good coverage and light penetration...otherwise expect lots of leaf, not alot of bud and the bud you do get will be airy, lite and low grade, In my last grow I only used ENVIROLIGHTs and LED ufo's I grew 2 plants and got 7.5 OZ from it I'll post a link in a min.. however I worked out that I could run a 250 or 400 or even a 600w HPS setup and still draw less power from the mains ...ok well 50w's extra with the 600, but far less with the 250 and 400... and the plants will grow HUGE compared to CFL, Good reflectivity also helps flat matt white paint is cheap and works well but I recommend MYLAR as its super reflective
Any how its up to you but I would use no less than a couple of 125w ENVIROLIGHT'S if you want anything half decent I'll add both my old and new thread links for you to check out... my old one is the CFL and LED grow...and the new one I am still in the process of building the cab, but at least you can see what is possible - STELTHY PS/ Feel free to message me if you need any help, I have helped a fair few people so far and enjoy all aspects of growing including helping people, PPS is yours a persy grow or do you wanna make some money? either way I can help you! - STELTHY

Otherwise, stfu...plus your dumbass doesn't even know how to spell: it's "stealthy" not "stelthy."No fuck you KBRoaster!

Erm.... My screen name is STELTHY, my grow is in a 'stealth-cupboard' 'tard! If you read my previous post I agreed with darkdestruction420 who stated a lot of low watt CFLs would be necessary to give 6 plants the light penetration they need in order to bud well! I stated I've used ENVIROGROW CFL's in my previous op. and did well however it was only 2 plants and I used a 250w CFL and 2X 90w LED UFO's.....soooo....in order to flower 6 plants and have a half decent harvest more lumens and more wattage is needed, wether you choose CFL or MH/HPS lighting is imeterial but more lumens/PAR is needed or your yield will be pants!!! and being a FAG is a way of life, which is exactly how you sound!!! if you choose CFL, LED, MH, HPS or THE SUN is personal choice! so Where as I am being helpfull your just being a CUNT! and you come across ignorant and unintelligent and VERY VERY GAY KBROASTER ...VERY GAY grow up and get a clue! PS DANKYBUDZ its entirely up to you but I'd say do some research on here 1st to see whats possible, Pictures are a very good way to determin the lighting source you'll need and the ammount of bulbs in which ever setup you choose, the more experienced growers in here should give you the best advice - sorry for the slaggin' match with KBROASTER on your thread I am done now! hope my text has been informative - "STELTHY"
I know what your screen name is because we know each other. Remember me? I was the guy that gave you a hundred bill last night when I was going through the drive-thru at the McDonald's you work at??? You told me you only had change for a fiddy...sheeit. Then I dropped your mom at the corner I found her and gave her a happy meal.
HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA ARRRRRR HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA We know each other cos we both applied for the same job, they took me on straight away n promoted me to managing director I felt bad for you when they kicked your ass to the curb cos you were under qualified for even putting a single cheese burger together! You think your a 'G' the only 'G' your associated with is your mum's 'GUNT!' I bet when your parents mistakingly made you, your Dad had to roll your Mums 'GUNT' in flour 1st just to find the fuckin wet spot, and Maccy D's even kicked his batty ass to the curb cos he thought by fucking a cow in the ass (your mum) qualified for a Mc Shake. The next time I twiddle anything it will be your neck - round n round till it snaps off! not your mums hermaphrodite genitals that your Dads so used to playing with! For 99% of the CFL growers I have upmost respect but when you say its a way of life, I bet you have the abbrieviated T-shirt and the letters C F L in your circumstance stand for 'COCK', 'FUCKING', 'LOSER'!!! you even had to save up your income support tokens to buy it, your Mum cried cos she had to lots of bad news in 1 day, A) she found out your a COCK FUCKING LOSER!! And B) that since you stole her share of income support tokens just so you could afford your G-A-Y 4 life T-shirt her fat ass now has to go without food for the next 3 months!!! If my mum was a Ho... which she's not! she would resemble Lanny Barbie and Cytherea, and bring home more money for food and delicacies and bud than your under average street whore disease infected bint! Even Jubba the hut would get more action than your mum and at least He'd get paid your 2-bit whore Mum would have to pay and hand over your whole dumb ass'd families food stamps just do get a limp dicked screw out of Pee Wee Herman! And yeah my mum was laughing like me at you! cos your mums eye lids were so fat that she mistook my mum for a whore and when you offered her a lift she laughed so fuckin' hard at you when you both pulled up on a mobility scooter with deflated wheels! You wanna talk shit? I 'll force feed you shit all day long, I'll force feed you so much shit that even your Mum your Sister, Brother and Dad will have to think twice before they 'kiss you goodnight' That'll be the 3rd disapointment for your mum in one day! You really are a CUNT! and now youve let down the rest of your familly too your a joke and THAT's funny you Bitch ass'd Mother Fucker you want 'GAME' I'll put you in the ground next time you slip up, and I know for sure you won't grow up cos you'll be buried 6ft deep, no lights no music just the toy from a 'Happy Meal' to remember your name Complete Fucking Loser or was it Cock Fucking Loser either way shut the fuck up! Even my dicks harder than you are .... the only thing you can handle is you Mums dick, I bet all hell breaks loose when your Dad finds her wetspot or do you just share her? Yeah your Dad sucks her Balls and you take her dick..The only thing your used to!
Seriously, who taught you to spell? Or how to rag on someone for the matter? I sure hope you grow bud better than you tell jokes. When you can cut down at a higher level--or even say something funny--, let me know...otherwise, you should go back to being the fluffer you are.
