I have a 4x2x6 closet set up to grow and was curious if a 400w mh and 2 48" full spectrum floros could grow a personal supply from start to finish. This is my first time growing.
He doesn't need to get a new ballast if his ballast is mh \.He can grow just fine with the lighting he has.Maybe not as well as if he had hps but better than cfls that for sure.those lights you have are both for vegitative growth. your going to have to get a hps bulb. i recommend using the mh lamp fixture for the hps bulb. (for flowering, but only if the fixture is a covertable, if not your oging to have to get a whole hps lamp set up), and then the 2 48" full spectrum floros for vegitative growth.
If you don't have the budget for a conversion bulb, you can grow fine bud with MH. MH actually grows higher quality bud, but the yield won't be a good.i want too but its not in the budget rigth at the moment. i plan on growing no more than five.
