Additional Forum - CFL Growing!

[Humboldt]

I am doing a CFL grow and am having some success with it, also I'm noticing a lot of people attempting CFL grows or are considering it, some are having success using them.

I'm thinking it would be Awesome to dedicate a forum strictly for CFL grows or if space is a concern maybe one forum to cover all fluorescent lights, CFL/FLO


One stop shop for fluorescent growers, how does that sound?

I think this would be gr8, lots of peeps are starting to use cfl's and i have even seen som mh/hps peeps trying out cfl's. Lots of mh/hps peeps even use cfl's for seedlings and i can use every tip and suggestion anyone has..... I love this idea!!

 

[masterkush]

Ima mh light user myself but i herd these cfl's are cheaper electric and replacement wise also i think my wife uses those for regular house lights are those
the same cause i would be happy i have a whole closet full

 

[1puff2puff3puff]

Yep, those are it, from what i understand anything under 26w is a waist of time (some say 40w) i got 1 85w and 4 105w... I love them, and i have had them on for about 1 month and 1 week and they are cool to the touch.

CFL's RULE!!!

Thanks puff puff puff, I'm happy to hear someone else likes the idea but I'm thinking we need a lot more people who like the idea as well to have a chance of this happening, not many people frequent this forum/category.

Take 3 puffs for me, then send people this way!

Great Idea humboldt. a place were you could ask a simple CFL lighting question and not get a million replies about switching to HID's or how superior they are BLAH BLAH BLAH. A place to get answers

[rhenderson]

Im for it. Ive grown with mainly MH/HPS but just started a grow with CFL's. Decided to put the space under my sink to some good use and the cfls are doing the job amazingly. So far at 4 weeks these ladies are nice and bushy and low.

 

[Ribbet29]

I dont want to jack your thread humboldt but I think I'm going to start a poll in newbie central keep an eye for it. maybe I'll call it Additional CFL Forum

 

[Humboldt]

AWESOME!!, some hope, thanks rollitup for popping in, I'm certain we could conjure up some more votes but how many exactly, what do you mean by a couple members, would you need people to help mod the cfl section of the forum?


No problem Ribbet, more votes greater hopes!

YES! This is a VERY GOOD idea humbolt! I just don't have a room ready for the type of light I want and only have seedlings right now. I want to start over because I wasn't ready for them with lights when they sprouted and they look like crap.

I want to start them out right with the proper cfl's. I used to have lots of cfl's but somehow they all went missing. Hubby said we threw them out but I don't remember.

I have grown all 5 of my inddor grows with only cfl's but had MANY of them haning close to the plants. The plants turned out incredible with only cfl's.

 

[BMWEATER]

Awesome Idea!!

 

[Foreverstoned]

For my first grow I'm using CFLs as lights so I'm all for it : D.

i agree with that im e new grower and since i have see this site i really appreciate to see the help they give and its real we (cfls growers) will need a a forum just for cfls to know where to go and not to look at 100 questions to find the answer somewhere
