Here you go:

Metal Halide is normally used for vegetative growth as it is higher on the spectrum, giving it that bright/day/white light.

High Pressure Sodium is normally used for flower as it is lower on the spectrum, giving it that soft/orange light.

CFL's can be found in both spectrums and can be used for vegging and flowering, depending on the bulb.

How much light you can provide the plant will depend on how many plants... how big is the space... what are your temperatures... how well do you exhaust the hot air, etc?

any input on sex or strain

[TheMetal1]

Nah... no sex. Just new growth coming out. You will look there for pre-flowers, but just give it time. You know how much it sucked when a teacher would breathe down your neck about finishing your assignment.... and it NEVER made you work harder? Think of your plants doing a few months of homework. Don't be stressing them :rasta:

Oh, and the strain looks like this one that I found in my world travels into the Himalayas... or was it the Andes? Either way it had a cool name... shit how do you say it? Oh yeah... it's pronounced "Bag-seed." :jointsmile:

Happy reading :rasta:

[adamus1]

hi.a nice noob question for you.is a 1000w metal halide bulb compatible with a 600w ballast,what will happen if its left on for long periods if it runs at all..thanks

[stinkyattic]

konvict- not even sexually mature yet. impossible to judge a strain by pics. see sticky at the top of 'medical strains' section.

adamus- NOT compatible, risk of damage/destruction to bulb and ballast, possible short/fire/explosion hazard, when you can buy a 600w bulb for $60 don't break a $300 ballast....
