As far as getting dense nugs with CFL, It's Not That Difficult.
On only my 3rd grow I was able to produce nugs that are just as dense as most HPS and Metal Halid. Mind you depending on the strain and where the plant is in my grow room I still get a few lighter nugs in my yield. Steadmanclan, you must not have seen many CFL grows in person, cause there is tons of CFL growers on here growing dense nugs. But honestly I;ll smoke any density of bud at the end of the day as long as it's decent smoke.

it does not really mather if you are growing with many, many cfls or just with a one hps.if you know what your doing you can archive just so much with just a few CFL lights and some other stuff(couple of fans,controlled environment-humidity, temps, right ph and so......)


so keep those cfls on, and those sweet marijuana plants growing....

is there a stealth box tutorial goin' on somewhere?

Dude, If you ever made a bird house in wood shop, making a stealth box will be 10 times easier and you will need less tools. any where you can put lights and ventilation can be use as a stealth box. Im sure my comment was probably no help, im pretty baked .

I'm currently growin some pretty bomb dense buds in a Stealth CFL cab. It's my first grow ever, heck it out out... the link is my sig.

There is a dingle berry caught in my ass hair that you can munch on if you're hungry.

But really, don't knock CFL growing. People go with CFL for lots of reasons and if you know what you're doing, CFL grows can produce buds just as dense, and just as good as HPS.


Fellow CFL growers - Don't have pics to put up just yet but I'll add some eventually. My CFL grow is doing nicely as usual. Keep it real.

So bud density is your measure of success huh?
Why then is the agricultural industry not scrabbling around trying to get denser fruit or
flowers? I've never heard of dense roses or strawberries so why should it be correct when growing MJ? Surely a dense lettuce is a cauliflower, not a super-lettuce
I'm not in US but I hear that the densest bud there is called brickweed and it's the cheapest crap in town. Please explain why you think dense is good when nobody else seems to agree except others who grow under street lamps.
Even hps growers usually start plants under cfl and then add cfls to their flowering rooms ffs!
Personally I'm more concerned with potency and flavour than how compact my bud is.
There's much research done by NASA with regard to growing indoors. I never saw them using hps. They seem to like cfl and led just fine but don't go near sodium. I suspect it's because the distance between a 1000w hps and the canopy has to be a couple of feet and a cfl grow can get a complete extra harvest in that wasted area.
If you can show any evidence that bud density bears any relation to potency or flavour then please post it. In the meantime I'll stick with what I've got thanks.

WELL PUT!! Also, brickweed is a name given to shitty reggie weed that has been compressed by the grower/dealer for easier transport and measuring, which gives it its rock hard density. Ive liteally gotten oz. that looked like the corner of a desk.
In fact, most commercial weed even good mids are compressed this way(at least in the US).

Well Steadmanclan seemed to be talking about the heavy dense buds he gets and he attributed it to his HPS bulb. I don't think he was aiming to grow brickweed, a term I usually associate with large scale outdoor which is packed and sold very dense.

Clearly he just dropped by to say the usual CFL is crap, get an HPS. Well some of the best bud I have smoked has been from small CFL grows and like v12 said, it's a quality smoke we're after.

Hey, I know HPS is great, but not everyone has a spare garage or basement or overall desire for a huge grow setup. Here's my space-saving, stealth CFL grow at 37 days in.. likely using lower total wattage than a HPS grow would..

I think my CFL's are doing juust fine..
