I am going to use them under the canopy when my girls get big (high) enough to as supplemental lighting but as a cfl grow they are what is recommended by those that do that.
I have an HPS so I never grew with only CFL.
All the posts I read or info in the grow FAQ points to those bulbs as choice tho.

hey bro i've actually read this thread a couple of days ago. I would def agree with going with a HPS, but have personally seen great results with CFL's, especially if space is an issue. Subscribed :joint: pass..

thanks bro and by the way speaking of vibes i heard this story that if you play music in the room with the plants they will have a bit better growth rate because the vibez and bass from the music stimulates growth in the roots is this true??

ive heard that also...so i always play bob marley and any other song with bass in it......there was a study where the grower played classical,rock,heavy metal and let one plant listen to natural sounds of the forest and the plant that had the heavy metal music out grew the other plants by a long shot

so i guess it does work:mrgreen:
