Opinions on two possible 600 watt HPS setups?

[EvilCartman]

I have become interested in two different 600 Watt HPS setups. The cost is almost identical for both systems, at roughly $550.

1) System # 1

Sun System Yieldmaster Reflector w/ 6 inch
Sunlight Supply Ballast Ss1 Hps 600w
HPS Bulb 600 watt Hortilux Eye
Superior Growers Supply link

2) System # 2
Hydrofarm 19" Cool Tube w/ cord
Hydrofarm Powerhouse 600W 120/240v HPS Ballast
Hortilux Super HPS Enhanced Spectrum Bulb, 600W
HydroSpot link

Any thoughts? :stoned:

Either one would be fine for the tent. If you plan to grow your plants tall, be aware that the reflector in system #1 will occupy ~ 12" or more at the top of the tent. The cool-tube will be more flexible in a tent, giving you the option of hanging it vertically, if plant height becomes an issue. :thumbsup:

I have chosen a Hydrohut Silver 3x3x7.5' tent as a perfect place for me to complete my first grow (veg + flower). After the first grow, I intend to set up another area for clones/veg, and the 3x3 hydrohut will be a flowering room for about 6 plants. Anyhow, I have become interested in two different 600 Watt HPS setups. The cost is almost identical for both systems, at roughly $550. 1) System # 1 Sun System Rating: 5
