Are you sure about that? Lower output? Wrong spectrum?

no shit. I've never seen a CFL out-preform a MH either. But I'm eager to learn. I just wont tell the plant the new info I learned.

Never said out perform but its not crap. I will take the trade off of high heat in the room that has to be controlled and the high energy bills no thanks ill stick to t-5

This endless MH/HPS argument...... come on guys.I have all of them and I have used all of them .some of them simultaneusly(MH and hps).
Now in one end of my flowering room I have a 600 watt MH and in the otherside 1000 watt hps and most of the plants in the moiddle recieve both of them.The MH side is more green(darker green foliage) with less vigour but more resin production(lets say about %40) and less bud production.
I even have had 3 generations of Diesel ryder under Mh and hps and cfl in separate occasions. I dont denywith HPS I had more yield but I wont forget the taste and power of my diesel ryder under the MH ,It was a serious high ( I never experience a serious high with my hps developed buds.
one strain under hps had some ceiling effect when i smoked it but the same strain under MH took me higher and higher with every puff. But HPS gave me 3 ounces a plant and MH gave me 2.
In mh side the garden is more managable.so which one is better? I love them both.
CFL is my choice of summers and without it I cant enjoy summer crop.
