My lowryder grow was done under floros, but they were T5's.
Still, the smoke is decent, I would recommend a scrog or lowryder if your using Floros. The reason Is that Floro lights will only penetrate 3-5 inches. If you just let them grow normally, the bottom buds will receive NO usable light.
I would also suggest International Cannagraphic Magazine Forums http://www.icmag.com/ic/index.php?
Although it might take you forever to get fully registered (took me 5 weeks, but that was right after the OG flood)

FYI International Cannagraphic Magazine Forums Is Gypsy Nirvana Seeds & HG420 Is DrChronic Seeds
I would recomend Dr seeds, only b/c they came though for me, but I enjoy both sites. Im also sure that ICMAG is located in Europe.

why dont you pick up some 125w cfls, they put out quite a bang and setups are affordable in your case.

Farmtek carries 125w Fluoros that fit in a STANDARD socket, no mogul socket needed for $32 bucks.
A friend of mine just grew two ounce of chocolate chunk from 4 plants in a small SWC under one of them, and an extra 49w bulb from the Depot.

what would one of those bulbs fit in? where would i get the right socket? my cfls run on regular cones bought from the hardware store. i would think that would cause a fire with one of those.
you sure nothing special?

Positive.
Those clamps lights that you get from Depot is what my friend used. He just got rid of that stupid aluminum reflector. If you look at the ad, it says it right there

Incandescent bulbs are just regular old light bulbs, the same kind these CFL's replace.
There is absolutely no danger in running one of these. Its no different than running a plain old light bulb, except you get more lumens and less heat.
A 250w HPS doesnt get that hot, and if you air cool it, it will be cooler than the fluoros. Not to mention, you can pull 3 - 8 ozs off of it, as opposed to 1 or 2. That means you could grow 2 or 3 times a year, making you more secure than a smaller grow running all year round.

what if i were to say, use one 80watt shoplight setup and a 75 watt MH to veg out some beauties, and then use the 75watt MH and the 125W CFL to flower 6 plants, wouldn't that get me at least a QP?
I also have another 32W cone that has grown two 2gram plants in a month so I know if I clamped that next to a nug it would dense it up.

In my opinion, it would be really awkward to use a CFL and HID in combination. Why get a 75w MH and 125w CFL and have 2 lights?
Just go with an aircooled 250HPS for veg and flower. Have one light, harvest 3 - 8 ozs every 2 months. Couldnt be simpler.
