So im getting set up for my grow i got 2x2x4 im using cfls for lighting i have 6 23w 2700k that give off 1850 lumens a piece. Ill be adding 2-3 42w or a 65w. I bought a sterlite garage container. Going to be going soil for this one. Getting mylar to go around the whole cab and making a reflector for the cfls.

Now my question now that you guys are cought up, what should i do to improve yeild on cfl grown plants.

Ive done 2 grows with a roommate with cfls and got 2 oz from letting one get really big and then about another 2 oz from doing about 4 - 5 little plants.

This time around i want to do something like Suppercropping or Scrog. Im not familiar with sog but i dont think i want that many plants. And i rather do scrog over lst.

So which technique improves yeild the best for my situation?
 
You starting light for veg should be 70% 6500k and then 70% 2700k in flower.
 
LST

LST will let you keep a lot of your plant very close to the lights. With CFL's proximity is the key. Scrog is basically a form of LST. But scrog usually makes it difficult to move your plants around, so I dont do that. Although I have seen one of those portable scrog buckets.....

Uncle Bens topping technique for 4 colas is also a good producing method.

When you position your CFL's keep in mind that more light comes off the SIDE of a CFL than off the top(or bottom if your looking at it that way lol)


Best of luck whatever you do.
 
good luck bro.molasses during flowering and just waiting it out,dont be afraid to flower 10 wks. or more.but yeah good luck.
