dont try cloning unless you know all the necessary steps to do it otherwise you just wasted a good branch... for me on my first attempt ever i got 100% success on cloning... =D
also when its budding try to keep your humidity at around 30-35% as well

I definatly Recommend MH, for the amount of plants you have, at least 400W

And I would get 2 150WHPS to add in during the flowering stage. Keep the MH with it. Use the CFL as side lighting if needed. Thats what I would recommend. If you have the money, I would recommend a 1000WHPS with a 400WMH
