It's not up to me to tell you what's best. But i think it makes more sense to know PHP pretty well before you turn to CI or any other framework. This is to make your life easier, your code organized better, your development time shorter, and not to cut down the learning curve. Not that you can't use CI without proper PHP knowledge but its harder for you, and you are likely to make mistakes, and leave bugs, if you don't understand the core (that being PHP)
