Got new light... which one to use?
My grow box is approx. 2x2x3 and am currently using six 55/200w 2700k CFLs producing a total of 22080 lumens. I just bought a 150w HID. Not sure if the bulb is MH or HPS but it produces an orange looking light so I assume its HPS? (bought it used for $25 so I dont know anything about it). My question is do I keep the CFL's, use the HID, or use a combination of the two? Heat is an issue as I am barely keeping the box in the low 80s using the CFLs. Thanks.
