Instead of making a new topic....

I see this is sort of old and answered and my question has to do with lights.....

Hope you don't mind

I want to VEG only with this light for 1 month and when my grow is over I can move them to my 600w horti. Of course shorting the turn around time is my goal here.

I am not 100% sure I should go this way or just get an MH 250?

12 seedlings to 18 to 24 inches or 4 weeks, whatever comes first. "Maybe 6 weeks if I can pull it off".

Soil grow and will be in a box surrounded by mylar. Can this 200w floro do the job for 4 weeks or do I need a MH 250? I want to keep my electric low and heat in the box down but DO NOT WANT a slow growing plant for 4 weeks.

I have a 600 and if I add 200 that is ok in my book but I do not want 1000w going on at once if it can be avoided.


any ideas?
