CFL Grow Light FAQs
Are CFLs good for flowering?
CFLs can be used for small flowering plants, but most growers switch to HPS lights or LED grow lights for more intensity during bloom.
How close should I place CFLs to plants?
Because they run cool, CFLs can sit just a few inches above plants without causing burn. Always monitor leaves for signs of stress.
What spectrum should I choose?
Cool white (6500K) CFLs are ideal for veg and propagation. Dual-spectrum CFLs work across the whole cycle for flexibility.
Are CFLs still worth it with LEDs available?
Yes—CFLs are cheap, effective, and excellent for propagation. Many growers use CFLs for early stages, then switch to LED or HPS for flowering.
