so if ur using say like 4 blue spectrum cfls, and 8 red spectrum, all at 100W equivalents, and say i wanted to use a 600W hps for some of the time during the lightportion of the cycle (in flowering), would the plants be harmed by the heavy fluctuations of light intensity during its 12 hour light? the prob is that 600 is too strong for just 2 plants, but they are mad big now, like 4 and 6 feet tall. its a small room, like 4 by 5 or sumn like that. close too, so itd be too hot, thats why id just use it for say like half of the light hours... is that a str8 idea? any input would be great.
