Is the possible to get normal yields with 200w huge growing cfl with reflector(putting out maybe 10,000 to 13,000 lumens) for 6 ruderalis plants?If i got mylar tent 90x60x180


Thanks for helping lads
 
What is normal, lol? Some people consider 2 to 4 oz per plant ok, I figure anything less than 8 oz per plant not so good. Too many variables come into play. I have an inside grow, an outside grow, a big flower room, a different veg room. Shoot, my grow shed is 12' x 24' and I am getting ready to put a 6' x 24' expansion on it, cause I need a bigger flower area. Just depends on how much you want to get.

you will get something but not alot compared to a 400w/600w hps/mh. even a 250w hps will seriously out do the 200cfl.
good for veg they are but ,yield will decrease dramatically.
t be honest even with auto's you still defo want something with more umph as they still aint small !
id use a 250w hps and the cfl. look about for a cheap one it makes all the difference.

you could get away with it but your yields wont be as nice and your plants will more than likely stretch.but ive grown with cfls and if you keep them right on top of the plant they will bush out usually but thats only 1 plant.with 6 id say get a hid bro its worth the investment

The great thing about growing your own is YOU get OUT what YOU put IN to it. If your happy with what your current setup yields that is all that matters. If not you can open up your wallet and fix it.

Thanks for posting lads.
At the moment i cannot really make up my mind bcuz i know 250hps is nice but its far more expensive in this area and then i need a shitload of exhaust and ventilation.Mby go for 2 200w cfls with reflectors

just remember with a small space it gets hot ! good air exchange with a 250w hps needed. anything bigger in your space and its gotta be aircooled i thinks.

why dont you just get a 70w HPS or a 150w HPS? CFLs are not the best. tbh if you insist on using CFL forget the ruderalis plants, just use normal plants and stick your light scedule on 12/12 from seedling .. you will pull more yield than the autos just dont expect compact dense buds ;)
