Vegging with a HPS
Hey everyone, just got a White Rhino sprout and Im wondering if you can veg with a HPS? Its 250w, but sadly its all Ive got at the moment and the weather is crap outside. Will the yield be reduced?

Vegging with a HPS
Cheers for the quick replies peeps. On the days where its too hot outside (in other words, when its more than 20C lol) I stick them either on the windowsill if Im feeling lazy, or in the garden.

Vegging with a HPS
go ahead and veg under 250...I do it in a closet...and it works great. As garden knowm stated...keep it away a bout 2 feet until they start to beg or stretch to the light then lower it a couple inches a day until you get it 12-18 above canopy(this should take a week or so)...dedicate a fan pointed under lamp/over plants.
put hand at top of plants...If hand burns, then plants burn...with fan you should have just a little warmth on you hand and that is the distance you want to keep your light at...hope this helps. lw ...as plant grows...raise your light.
