Lighting Biggest yield from CFL'S?

  • Thread starter Thread starter wrekstar
  • Start date Start date
Watts: 3x 105W
Strain: Auto Blueberry X AK-47
Yield: 35g per plant

I only grew two at a time, but could've squeezed four in there; not sure if that would've altered yield.

Good luck with your grow!
 
This is a good thread to have, I've got 5 fast bud fems going right now, just 3.5 weeks along, i'm using right now a total of 143 actual watts, its not much but they are looking nice, anyone know how much i could get from those?

I was looking up some info on the best type of CFL for Auto's Mr. Piggy answered my question to a T.

Looking at getting 2 Felix Duel Spectrum CFL's maybe 2 300w or 250w w/ C.A.P. CFL Hanging Mogul. Maybe add a top rated LED later tho. Thanks for the info guys.
 
An old thread but a handy record of CFL yields.

I pulled four ounces using ...

1 x 250W Plug and Grow Red CFL, these put out 19,500 lumens and use 190-200W of real power, cost me 70 pounds for the light and reflector assembly.

4 x Dutch Passion Starryder AutoFems, these were in 2L (half gallon) pots using Plant Magic organic seed compost and PM organic nutes plus PM biosilicon.

Tap water.

20/4 light cycle (but for my current grow i am using 18/6 after what i've been reading about how our plants need 6 hours of darkness for lots of reasons).

The bud was a tiny bit airy and not very strong, this time round i will use a proper vegging CFL with the same properties (same brand) as the red one i used, hopefully this wil improve bud density and potency.
