Thats actually pretty good...
But yea, go 400wMH/400wHPS/C02 and increase bud size/yield.

Great Job with those cfls!!

Sweet, i realy dont know why people say cfls are crap because i got excellent buds too. And my electricity bill was unnoticable. Great work, what type of cfl's did you use and how many watts. I use 125 watt 6700k for veg and 250watt 2400k for flower. Heres some pics of my last grow.

So do you think that you would get more buds with a 250watt hps.

I'm not sure I agree either. I think CFL's do just fine when used properly. Plus you never have to worry about heat or power costs.

Yeah I used 6 CFLs on my last (soil) grow and I counted 100+ buds, some of which were as big as your biggest one there (to the OP of this thread) and some smaller like the size of a blueberry. It all depends how close you get the lights (and of course other things) but with CFLs it's about getting coverage and proximity - CFLs die off quickly after a few inches away!!

I harvested the one bagseed plant (6 CFLs, in soil) after 12 weeks of flowering and fighting hella high temps (90-100). I got just under 2 ounces. I used FIM and LST'd like crazy. It was like a SCROG but w/out the screen.
