    I use something very similar it's a 2 x 55w mother light which is ok for 5 or 6 for a couple of weeks & then hit them with 600hps..

    I give them a couple of weeks under the cfl & then hit them with 600 ds hps throughout the whole grow, usually 4/5 weeks veg.

    More light = more bud so I'd say yes.. Personally I'd got for 250 hps..
