metal halide/hps versus fluoros

[scobbie]

That's what i have always done

fluoro's-clones/seedlings...400w MH & 250w hps for veg and 1000w hps hortilux for flower

latewood are the results better using the mh and hps mixture as i use fluros for veg and was thinking of adding a 250 watt hps do you think it would be ok with fluros

scobbie Reviewed by scobbie on 02-11-2006. metal halide/hps versus fluoros I know mj can be grown using both forms of lighting, but is metal halide really that much better for veg growth? Has anyone grown same strain using both mediums and kept a photo log? and about hps, are they that much better for flowering? same followup question applies here... also, i've heard about hps (special) grolux being used for veg...isn't easier to get the right spectrum by just popping in a conversion kit for a metal halide bulb? one more...which is easier, metal halide ballast Rating: 5
