HPS lighting is possibly the most popular choice today. It has a nice redish spectrum whichis best for flowering. Dont give up on florous yet though, theyre a good choice for the vegging cycle. If i were you i'd get a HPS bulb with blue spectrum. These bulbs are called son argo or something. If you get this bulb then you wont need floros or MH. You can the same HPS through the whole plant lifetime and get optimal quality.
Dimebag Reviewed by Dimebag on . First Time Grower... GROW LIGHTS !!! Hi, After reading through web sites I realise I need a HID light for best results, the only thing there a bit too expensive for me, around £70.00. Is there any other alternative light source that is cheaper? I will probably be growing just 2-3 plants for myself. Rating: 5
