plantit said: true. I meant more about the reg and fem seeds fucking each other up and getting seeds on my femz easier. I will have to keep an extra eye for males and herms. or perhaps veg the reg seeds in a small sep area?? this is all personal and nothing huge. I decided i may go with a 150W HPS and about 100+ watts of extra cfl for flower and 147W of cfl for veg.
EDIT...going with a 250W HPS and 100+ watts of cfls for flowering..
Just watch for males after you change the light cycle. Its not like they drop pollen right away. You got a large amount of time to get the males out before they do dmg.

But watt for watt, CFL's produce MORE heat than HID lights produce. I would recommend using an HID light, in all honesty, but what you decide is up to you. I've seen people get pretty decent buds from just using CFL's. Nothing really stellar, mind you. Just nice decent mid-grade herb...
With autos I'd say multiple CFLs would be better because you cannot train them to get an even canopy (Edit: that much)...

Ebay has some deals.
And if you didn't find sockets yet you can get them right at Walmart. Right near the bulbs.

Why should that mean it isn't real?

How many plants do you wanna grow under these lights exactly? Like let them grow naturally without big training in order to have a decent sortiment of strains?

1000 watt HPS will do 25 really nicely if they have a short veg time or are autos.

That's still pushing the limits of the lighting you're using. But good luck!

With a lot of rotation I could see it.
But you may have the same results with only 5 or 4 at a time. Also if you run just the autos you can use a much longer light period of 20 hours on 4 off a day.
With the limited light, but running 20 hours on and good rotation with the autos you could do pretty well.
