sup yall i cam in to some money problems and had to sell my last set up i was wondering i am planing on going cfl this time around plan on using 4 105w full spectrum cfls 2 over two under and about 2 42w on each side inside a 2x4x5 grow tent will this do the job i am planing on growing 4-6 lowryder aks or blueberry or some other lowryder mix to keep them short what would be the heat output difference from that and a 250 hps and will that light set up get me some good dense buds or any ideas of any thing else i should think about
 
that set up will probably give u the same amount of heat as a 250. should be fine with that. just remember to put the lights in a reflector...I used one of those broil metal pans, cut 2 holes in them put 3 lights per hole....the had side lighting....all fit under the reflector.
 
word yeah i have a reflector i was planiing on using cam wit my last first hood i am hoping when i actually start back up i can fix my vent problems that i had when i had my tent ib the closet to keep my temps lower the mid to high 80's
 
Yea...just have the light spread out.... my first grow i used 14 warm cfl's. I believe they were 26w.... and i had 3 plants with one around 30ins tall.
