Horizontal or Vertical cool tube lights

[CrusadeBoxer]

Which type of light is better. Why. wouldn't horizontal be better because it is on top of the plants. Or would vertical be better because it is on top and on the sides of the plants. Or is it

vertical is better more lumes get to the plants, and if you want to save money on getting another light bend your plant. you will get major growth that way. she was bent, and thats 1 plant

Are you kiddin me. all of that in ur pic is one plant. DAMN. I'm for sure gonna go with vertical lighting. But should I use cool tubes or not. what watts do you have and was it origonally supposed to be hung down horizontally and not vertically.

That is a beautifull plant no doubt. With tracks I hang my bulbs straight down for more coverage and use umbrella shades.

Straight down = horizontal right. I think I am going to have 2-1000Watt Cool tube HPS vertical lights. And 2-600watt or 400watt lights hanging horizontally. the vertical lights will be in the middle and going on the sides and partially tops of the plants and the horizontals will be right on top of them covering the top colas. Sound good?

i have a 400w hps and a 125w fluo warm in there, you would want the bulb to go sideways instead of going up and down.
