I have a 250w ballast which powers both MH and HPS bulbs. The MH 25,000 lumens and the HPS 33,000 lumens. I have a small grow area. Are MH bulbs really that much better for vegging? Can a HPS be as good for vegging?

Hey just thought I would direct you to some info ...Growing Information - Cannabis Forums Message Boards - Medical Marijuana, Cannabis Club, Dispensary, News read as much of that as you can ... start with the FAQ then the BASIC section. Easiest way to learn is to search for knowledge already on here. MH for veg because of the levels of light it offers and HPS for flowering period. Can you go from seed to curing with HPS yeah you can, is it something you should do if you have a digital ballast that can run both hell no. Hope that helps!
Listen to frosty!!! besides, if its lumens you're worried about, don't. That's plenty for small grow... If you're going bigger then you're going to need to look into a bigger lamp.Quote:
