My Lamp blew. Bought a new bulb only to find it still doesnt work. Due to the upcoming holidays I am left with a difficult decision either I can purchase a 10000 lumen T5 system with both 6400k and 3000k bulbs or I can buy a 250 HPS. Whichever I get will be used for the remaining 2 weeks veg and the entire flower. After reading hella threads and doing numerous calculations I am still not sure whether I should sacrifice light intensity (HPS) for the spectral range of the T5 sys. So I ask, what do you artists think?

My g-space is 4.5 ft^2.
