If 12 x 20 feet, I'd go with HID lighting.
If 12 x 20 inches, I'd perhaps go with the LED's.

Although a few gardeners are having some successes with LED's, I much prefer HID lighting. Especially if new to growing. HID's are easy, proven and reliable. Each type of light comes with benefits and consequences.

Whichever way you go...get the best you can afford. E-Bay crap is often...crap. If you have any questions...ask here before hitting the "purchase" button. It might just save you a bundle on an ill-advised purchase.
Rusty Trichome Reviewed by Rusty Trichome on . LEDs or traditional lighting? I am looking to start my first grow and am wondering what would be better to go with. I am looking to be discrete and will be growing in a room that is 12x20. I have looked at multiple light systems and am leaning towards the LEDs. What are the better LEDs on the market and the cheapest place to buy them. All help would be appreciated.:jointsmile: Rating: 5
