Vance hit it dead on. Work within your means and add to your gear as time goes on, and things will turn green at your command! If you had a 1k lamp setup and have some extra bling look into dual arc bulbs, or they make hps conversion bulbs that will work in MH setups. Short life but best of both worlds.
frostedwonder Reviewed by frostedwonder on . MH Bulb all the way through Just out of curiousity what would be the drawbacks of using a MH bulb through the flowering stage. If someone was dumb and bought a metal halide ballast and bulb and has that laying idle. It could be used throughout the whole process right? Interested in the cons of that. Rating: 5
