next time use t5's instead of the t8's or 12's that ur using. those things are only good for breaking on the pavement.

Would have been a little more interesting if you used half decent floro tubes....I have a 2 Tube setup with 5k lumens per tube and my floros work amazing.

I will donate my grow for comparison. This is 5 strains grown in a 2x3 screen with a 6 bulb T5 light and it is 5 weeks in.
 
Hey just read ur experiment, and just saw it was in 2007 !!! waow .... so now in 2011 , whats ur conclusion ??
how about in flowering time ?
Through ur post i realised i was using tooo much light : my grow space is a closet : 80 cm deep, 120 cm wide and 180 cm height.
in that tiny space i had placed all CFL lights : 2 big 85W each , and 3 small 48W each , my total is 300 smth . guess thats the reason
why my leafs are all yellow on their tips next to where the light was ( in areas farther from light , all tips are fine).
