Nutrient lockout is not due to the brand of nutrients you use. Nutrient lockout is due to two things,
1. improper pH,
2. mixing them incorrectly. And by that I mean combining parts together (A...

Comparing lumen output of florescent lights to HID is like comparing apples to oranges. The biggest difference (besides light wavelength spectrum) is how far from the bulb those lumens can actually...

Ya, you can grow fruiting plants with florescent lighting, but not worth it in my opinion and for my money. By the time you add all the florescent tubes you'll need for good plant and fruit growth...
