light alternatives

[dsn]

If I have no money for HPS or MH light, are there any other lamps that I can use?

 

[Igotdialup]

CFLS (compact fluorescents), or the tube ones.

Yep, cfl is the best when you have a low budget. There is some pretty good cfl growers on here, check out cfl journals.

And how much W with cfl I need for per plant?

 

[NoDrama]

50-100 actual watts per plant.

You need to read. 5 minutes of browsing and you wouldn't come off like a jerk.

For $20 you can get a 150 watt HPS light, it will be cheaper than CFL's.....
