Lights for vegetation advice

[delbwoy77]

Hi,

Just wondering if it is possible to use a white flourescent light fitting for the 4 week vegetation stage? Currently using 2 x 400w HID but looking to replace with something effective but cheap to purchase and operate.

Thanks again for any advice!!

A fluorescent light will do good for vegetation stage, try to get cool white, plants like the extra blue hue to grow tight nodes (grow bushier)
