sorry someone made a great thred and it kinda got off track. I know people dont really like to go 5 pages in so i figured id do the favor of restarting it for him..i also replyd in his old one but anyways....

to answer the Thred started

i did just grow a mini with 1 plant 2 65 watt cfls flowerd to 10 inches and budded and got 1.5 ounces... it was in a closet with no mylar and no nutes...was bullshitting and still got a good WW yield.

wow i really thought i would see some better stuff in this thred....

that didnt look like 94 grams...even so,nice plant. However you can grow some sick plants with cfls. there is just a few rules that should be followed when you do it.
1.)KEEP THE LIGHTS CLOSE AS FUCK like 2-4 inches theres no heat so you will be okay..i even burn my leaf tips at times to get the lights that much closer to the buds.
2.)HAVE MANY ANGELS OF LIGHT, plenty on top and sides is great helps to keep HUGE buds all the way through
3.)DONT GROW YOUR PLANTS TALL, 10-12 inches in veggi is good, they will look diffrent then hid plants, much more bushy and beautiful.you can grow them tall if you like but its not a good idea even if you do plan to have side lighting.

there are also other tricks that make bigger yields with cfls..in a closet you can have 3 grows in one area...because they lights are so small plants are so small and the space between them is also small....you can fit 3 or more sets of plants, kind of like a light tower.

Sea of green is sick with cfls...there is TONS of good things about cfls that you cant do with hps lights...

finnaly in conclusion...
i do think that HPS is better overall but you DEFITNLY can make it with cfls i have done it...i just moved to GA so i dont have any pics YET but you will see soon enough.

thanks...i think its crazy how people hate on cfls so much...i do think the hps is better but cfls can do the trick too...most places dont have stores to buy hps from and that just makes it a hassel when you can just go to ANY store really and get what you need....plus it might be easy to fork out a 100 for a grow set up and not so easy to fork out a few hunderd for just a light..i know the 20 hps lights ect ect but that takes even more work then just some cfls would...thanks for the input good luck growing
