Alright, I'm gonna give a little background before my question. I just bought a lumatek 600w Ballast, a sunleaves air cooled reflector, and a 6" can fan all for $200 from someone on Craigslist. (Pretty good deal) The guy threw in a 600w HPS bulb and a 400w MH bulb.
My question is: Should I invest in a 600w MH bulb or should I just use the 400w he gave me? I'm gonna be running 4 autos. I'm gonna have 4 t12 bulbs for side lighting and 8 23w CFLs hanging (2 in each corner) for a little extra lighting. Would going from 400w to 600w make that huge of a difference?
