i am currently growing in a cupboard with a 600w hps, a bit heavy on heat!

was just wondering if i bought a 250w hps bulb would it be cheaper on electricity as it will still be going through a 600w ballast???:thumbsup::hippy:

could it also effect the yield of my plants?

How about getting a cooltube and some ventilation? Big difference in yield with a 250 and 600...

Yes it will be cheaper and yes it will affect yeilds.

I agree with bigtopsfinn, get a cooltube. Could you get me one too. LOL

It's next on my list with a vortex type fan to go with it.
