That is quite impressive production. Have you ever thought of converting this into a scrogg grow due to your limited vertical space? I think you could increase your yield this way. Either way its a great setup keep up the good work.

Thats actually a pretty good idea! I'm gonna try lollipopping a few of my next grow, just to see how I care for that method, then a screen might be worth a shot, thanx a lot!

not bad for cfls......but to be honest man its a huge waste of energy and will give you nothing for yeild...you wont be getting 5 gram colas from those at all..try 2-3 if you are lucky..if you were using 400w of hps 5 would be a no brainer...im not trying to bash you bro..as far as the basics go you are doing great and the girls look nice and healthy...but if you want to turn out nicer tighter and bigger yeilds without overspending on electricity then lookinto hps.....

Okay, the math definitely is in yer favor on this one (although, only by 60W, in my case.) How much more heat will the HPS give? Also, my buds look to be filling in rather nicely so far! I'm not saying that you're wrong, I haven't harvested yet, so I don't know, but it looks like more than you are thinkin I'll get. I hope you're wrong, but if you're right, my only problem of production CAN be the lighting, so I would def know what to change!
