I'm not sure I follow you... "2 2 set"?

It's two sets, of flourescent lights, that have 2 bulbs, each measuring 4feet... right? wrong?

Anyways... what kinds of lights?

Veg... MH - Metal Halide (prefferably), or CFLs (highest WATTs possible)
Flowering... HPS - High Pressure Sodium (preff.)

You can do everything with flourescents/CFLs... but...

Get the best that your budget $$$ will allow...

Best,

Man, I'm not 100% sure if Metal Halides are sold in Home Depot...

Maybe yes... yes... I think so.... I think for security lights... or outdoor lights...

As for cost... no idea... probably upwards of $50... and less than $150... sorry for the crappy cost estimate... but that's my best guess.

Again, buy the best possible lights your $ will allow.

Something good about Home Depot... if you find better lights in the near future, you could return the ones you buy tomorrow...

Best man...

Turtle -- are you adding the HPS to the MH for flowering, or are you replacing the MH with the HPS for flowering?

Sorry for the late reply, hadn't read it...

I'm adding the HPS... I'll be running both bulbs during flowering... the 400MH and the 600W HPS.

Let's see how that turns out...
