Lighting question

i have been reading alot about lighting. i have four plants and they range from just under 3 inches to about 6 inches. i have them under floro lights 24/7 but i have read that these are not the best lights for flowering. so i was wondering if it would be fine to leave them under these light until i'm ready to flower. or if it would be better to switch sooner.

Its allways good to put a big gun bulb shining on the plants, but if u can´t afford HID, fluoros will do just fine....

if i save up some money and buy the hid for when i flower will that make a big difference in the amount that the plants yeild

Huge dif....even if u get something like a 400w HPS the plants just boost in growth (and so do the buds )

Think of it this way. The more light (in any stage) the better the final product. What are you using for reflective wall coverings?

cool well ill start saving now so i can buy a better light. and i'm using that mylar plastic stuff for the walls and stuff in my room.
