youd have to make minor modifications to the light, but would be better than those other lights
250-400 hps is the long term answer....money constraints must begin with other light sources...have obtained plans to alter hps security lights...still researching my options...
more as I know it...peace
envirolites are not available in my area or I would be looking at those...
Some times the obvious eludes you....once set up, I will clone 2-4 plants at a time, harvesting a few plants every few weeks, creating a perpetual harvest situation...
mercury vapor(security light conversion), 75-250 watt hps, red and cool white spec fluorescents in combination, and reptile basking lights(UV) are my present light sources that I am considering for use in my "inexpensive" cabinet grow plans...
phillips (C4 & L4), GE, and Sylvania all sell red spectrum fluorescent tube lighting in the USA... shop light fixtures and light tubes can be had for about $20.00 total...
I have two mercury vapor lights 175W each and over 100W of tube fluros on my plants, they're a few weeks in the veg stage but the mercury lights are perfect. They make the plants more greener it seems. Worth every penny, for $30 each light, cant go wrong!
did you get these lights as outdoor security lights and rewire them? ....and how hot to they get....thx.peaceQuote:
