Gotta love how people have to comment about how much better hps's are then cfls lol.. I don't think you could ask for nicer looking budz than those bro.

CFL's are wiser IMO unless you have a legal pass to grow. Less heat, less electricity usage and beautiful budz.

I wouldn't harvest those until the trichs are starting to turn though!!

Thanks for the comments guys, I do know that an HPS would give me better plants, but like said above :
Less heat
Less electricity
Less hasle

I am happy with the results, I only gona harvest 2 plants on the 31ST and give at least week to the last 2.

looking good, what size of tent is that, i have a 75 x 75 x 1.6 tent, im going to put in 2 250 watt cfls for the top and 2 65 watt cfls for lower light, also going to be doing 4 plants, its pretty similar to yours lol i have reflectors on the 250's though

why do people come on the cfl section and say hps is better, stay of the cfl bit if all your going to say get a hps

i think i have the same lights as you. Are they actually 300w or are they 300w equivalent?

what do you think about using these with sativas? I'm vegging a haze plant now, and i'm hoping 4x of these 105watt (actual) 2700K CFLs will do the trick for flowering

Both lights are 300W, I vegg with 2 x125 W. You will be fine with your Sativas just don't vegg too long, they explode once flowering and can easelly double or even triple their sizes...

I just harvested a Fire O.G. today. I got 121.4 grams trimmed wet.

This was a plant I rescued from a kid. I usually run 400 watt HPS in my grow box. I also have a 315 watt CFL Multi-Spectrum Array in a closet.

I was really amazed at the quality of the Buds which I get under the CFL's. Really nice and compact Dank! I will continue to use both. I am going to focus on heavy indicas under the CFL.

Good Luck
