Anyways... what kinds of lights?
Veg... MH - Metal Halide (prefferably), or CFLs (highest WATTs possible)
Flowering... HPS - High Pressure Sodium (preff.)
You can do everything with flourescents/CFLs... but...
Get the best that your budget $$$ will allow...
Best,

As for cost... no idea... probably upwards of $50... and less than $150... sorry for the crappy cost estimate... but that's my best guess.
Again, buy the best possible lights your $ will allow.
Something good about Home Depot... if you find better lights in the near future, you could return the ones you buy tomorrow...
Best man...

Turtle -- are you adding the HPS to the MH for flowering, or are you replacing the MH with the HPS for flowering?
Sorry for the late reply, hadn't read it...Quote:
