2)Should I use the 250hps or can I step up to a 400w with the size of the tent?
I run a similar tent, same size. IMO, as long as it's air cooled, a 600W would be the hot set-up. I run a 400 and think a 250 would disappoint in that space. :twocents:
EvilCartman Reviewed by EvilCartman on . Questions about HPS and tent... Sup guys... Ive been using CFLs and LEDs and am curious to try an HPS for flowering. My tent dimensions are 31 1/2" x 31 1/2" x 63" tall. My biggest concern is heat compared to LED/CFL. I know it will get much hotter but I plan on using a cool tube or vented hood. Homebox (maker of my tent) says my tent should use a 250w HPS. Here are my questions: 1) Which cools better? Tube or vented hood? Rating: 5
