No I dont have an HPS lamp at the moment, between bills and upcoming holidays money is getting a bit tighter so I wont be able to afford them for my grow yet.

Most likely will be flowering with a ton of CFL's for this grow, unless I somehow manage to find a very cheap 200 watt (or better) HPS that is decent.
And by cheap... I mean under $100 (with the ballast lol)
Probly not gonna happen for this grow honestly.

The home depot 70watt HPS security lights are $75 each in my area. So for my first grow here I can save money while learning, and just add a few extra CFL's into my cab's, which also keeps temps much lower, and only has a slightly lower lumen output overall.

My next grow I will most likely be getting a 400-watt HPS system, but I'm still on my first grow right now and I'm still learning quite a bit.

I don't really plan to get a big op going honestly. Just enough for me to smoke and have a little extra for some friends when they stop over once in a while is my goal.

I'm not a daily smoker anymore, so I dont go through a whole lot. An oz of fairly good stuff will last me 2 months usually now. I purposely keep my tolerance level low. I used to smoke mids daily (and I mean all day long) for about 7 years straight. I had a pretty massive tolerance since I was going through an oz (or more) of mids every week. It also started to affect my job, cash flow, and my relationships, so I cut way back on my smoking.

Basically for 7 years straight I had dark red eyes, and if I didnt, I was using a ton of visine lol.
