Thanks, Mobay...you're quite helpful!

Kush Over, These are 150 watt HPS 'flood' lights from Lowes. You are certain they will work, correct?

I'd still need blue spectrum flouros for veg, though.

I'll only be starting out with a little over $200.00 to spend on my first grow. I still need ferts, soil, fan, etc...

Maybe I'll start with only 1 plant, and flower under the 150 watt HPS from Lowes, just to get a grow under my belt. By the time I harvest, I'll have enough money for a proper 400-600 watt HPS grow light for my next grow.

May be the wisest choice for the funds I have at hand...

What do you all think?
