Hi i was just on the site and notice that they are actually carrying these lights now. I was just wonder how good homedepot's hps and mh are. I am new to these lights so help me out.

now i am planning on hetting a hps and a mh from there if you think they are worth it or get what you paid for situation because i am currently growing with CFLs and they are working fine but still am interested in better lighting.

The 2 that i am looking at (low on cash) :
This bulb has mogul base, 28500 lumens, 24000 life hour, 9-3/4 in. overall length, 2-1/4 in. dia., ED-18 shape, 21 CRI, 2100 K CCT. Mfg #C250S50/ALTO.

â?˘ Ceramaluxâ?˘ 250 Watt Clear High Pressure Sodium Bulb
â?˘ Mogul base.
â?˘ 28500 lumens.
â?˘ 24000 life hour
(btw homedepot sells up to 1000W)

and the metal halide:
Features mogul base, enclosed luminiaries, 21250 lumens, E-28 bulb, 10000 hr. average life, M58/E ANSI code, 60 CRI and 4000 K color temperature. It''s overall length is 8-5/16 in. Mfg #MH250/U

â?˘ 250 Watt Clear Metal Halide Bulb
â?˘ Mogul base.
â?˘ 21250 lumens.
â?˘ 10000 hr. average life

now both of theses are around $25 each, and does mogul base mean it comes with the cord/socket.

So i understand Mettal Halide is for Vegging and High pressure sodium is for Floweing correct? and will my results be decent with only 250W bulbs?

All info/advice is appreciated.
