I usually place the cfl inside one of those round metal shop lights.. I then place that directly over the top of the plant. Then I place the other bulbs all around the sides. I got almost 3 o's off the grow and first the first time I can't complain.
For some reason It's not letting me put up a picture. I'll try later for you.
does that mean this isn't good?Here ya go
Next time I will place 2 bulbs(using a splitter) inside the metal shop light thing and it should be even better.
i am always surprised about nice cfl setups,like i see cfls not as an alternative light choice,but just until you get enough for decent hps setup,but why go out and get mylar and good nutrients and nice setup and then not use a hps,at least a small one cause they produce such a nicer bud,not at all arguing the fact that cfl can grow,but from personal experience,i know that a cfl just doesnt do like an hps
