Hps or cfl?

[AZHIAZIAM]

im not sure wether to use my 6 26w 6500k cfls for veg, or just go HPS the whole way. i have 4 HPS setups 1x150w, 3x70w. what do you think????

i know HPS for SURE during flowering.
thanx a lot!

 

[ganjaman13]

hps all the way!

Can you use the same hps bulb for vegging as you do for flowering

 

[ganjaman13]

yep i do it all the time

 

[AZHIAZIAM]

ok. and would i just add up all of the watts of light im using to find the total amount???
like if i used all four of my HPS it would be.....360W?

 

[ganjaman13]

if you need to thats how ya do it

 

[runsfromdacops]

no such thing as to much light, just to much heat.

HPS would be best for yielding if oyu want larger amounts then go off with HPS

for me tough with my space limitations i use cfl's i got good yield last harvest of my 2 plants (4 oz dry) and no im trying with a new strain and well lets see what happends

also you save more money in your electricity bill with cfl's
