Question: Adding 105w Daylight CFLs to LED Magnums

**DemontauruS** · 11-10-2011, 08:25 AM

I have been growing in a 3x8 foot space under 2 357 Magnum LED lights. The results have been spectacular, but yet, I cant help but feel that if there was just a little more light in there, the results might be even better.

Im in my 8th week flowering on a space full of regs, and some of the stalks are too sparse and popcorn - especially in the shady areas. SO Im adding in the 9th week of flowering (and will continue to use with the LEDs thereafter on the next grow) two 105W pb105 daylight CFL bulbs, which should be the equivalent to an added 800W of light.

This would be my first time using CFL's. Did I get good bulbs for the amount of space I have? Ill probably be expanding to take on 3x12 space, and 5 full sized plants next grow.

Went with CFL because of budget, tred to do the best I could. I usually see 24w (100w) CFL's pulling off decent enough plants. Figured the 2 105w (400w x 2)800W would be a good blast for that smal space, especially with LEDs already pulling the lightwave spectrum weight.
