I have 1 70 w homedep light right now and have used that since the beginning and the plants look pretty good, not much stretching. They have been on flower for about 2 weeks now and are looking pretty on schedual, looking like they might file out to be some thick nugs. I was thinkiing though that i would buy another 70 watter and conjour up a side mounted system, so 2 70 watters shining in from teh sides. I just really dont want to shell out the 200 or so bucks for a 400 watter, especially after i bought 1 70 watt light. Well please gimme some feedback, id appriciate it.

Thanks

smoke em if you got em

true....im probubly just going to get another 70 w i mean 140 w hps feels like enough light based on the growth right now in week 2 flower. I got my digital camera but seemed to have misplaced the connection cable so we'll see.

I actually had another inquiry. they sell mercury vapor lights at the-dep also.......i almost got it confused with metal halide and bought one but didnt thank god. I didnt know how well these MV lights worked, if at all. Well lemme know.

Peace

10-4 good buddy. well my plan of action is to just go get another 70 watter from the depot and make a side mounted hanging thing......my camera doesnt have its connection cable so ill explain.......i plan to just hang a 2x4 length wise with 2 2x4 on either side hanging down and mounting both lights to that. its adjustable and i figure ill get more nugs that way....specially down at the bottom of the plant. Well im going to the depot, later people
