most decent hps bulbs have a decent spectrum, a lot of peeps in the Dam only use HPS's..sonT's. The local Home and Garden growshop only sells HPS bulbs. I had to order my MH on the infoweb

I use flouros for veg. 2 of the 2', 4 tube HO t5 fixtures and a 4', 6 tube t8 fixture. All are 6500k but 2 of the t8 bulbs which are 3000k I think. The t8 is doing most of the veg duties now and the others are covering a couple moms and the humidity dome and seedlings

I got a question for everyone. What light do you use for vegging vs. flowering? What I mean is veg - 400w & flower - 1200w, or veg - 600w & flower 600w... or whatever you do.

I'm wondering how much light to use for my next veg period. I usually use something like a 250w for veg... but I wonder if anyone finds using the same wattage for veg as flower makes the plants do better. I would guess it keeps them shorter with more light, maybe more budsites... not sure. That's why I'm asking, lol.

peace

Jig I veg under a 4 bulb t8 floro until i repot and then veg under 2 600's. It does have a noticeable effect vegging under MH vs floro. I found that it keeps the plants more compact as theyre not stretching to reach optimal light. But mostly they just beef up alot faster.

jig - I use two 4' 8 bulb HO t5 fixtures for veg, I have a mix of bulbs that has no rhyme or reason. In my flower I use 2 600w bulbs per octo for a total of 4 bulbs. As for the consistency of wattage, I would uneducatedley guess that it would be beneficial to use the same wattage. We know that more watts are better in flower, and I know when i put the t5 bulbs closer to the vegging plants, they do grow closer and more budsites. But the light loss from a floro bulb is greater then that of a hps. Then comes the question of mh, hps, or floro lighting. I have had the same veg growth from 400w of floro as 400w of hps, but I have yet to purchase a mh setup.

wow, never seen so many people answer the same question. so while we are on the subject..........

1x220w cfl 4200k + 1x125w cfl 6500k for veg and two 600w hps dual spectrum for flower. i certainly notice the difference when i move them from the cfls to the hps, they stretch like hell.

I know, it was almost like a survey...governments find it harder collecting information than the 600 does!!!!!

How long did you flower your AG? I have one going right now at 57 days flower and 8 weeks vegging in a 2 gallon pot. She's only about 23" tall but I plan to put her clone in a 3j gallon smart pot next

She looks tasty, can't wait to chop mine down :weed:

Just noticed this, I think it was around eleven weeks, they are not my plants. I can tell you this, his were grown in three gallon waste paper baskets, the ones like masonman uses, and his were supercropped and lst'd and they were easily four feet tall. I'll let you know about weight in few days when they dry and it's time to jar the bud.
