Can I use my HPS to get a tan?

Doesn't put out enough uva/uvb or whatever to give you a tan. They say MH has more in it but you'd be better off going to the pet store and buying some uvb bulbs (the kind used for reptiles) if you wanna tan. I don't recommend using these to tan though because uvb is harmful. Though reptile bulbs would be good to increase trichome production. Just a thought.

Just make sure to drink lots of nutrients... maybe make a nutrient/suntan lotion tea... it'll be good for ya. Trust me! I gotta friend that rocks a 1000w tan all day!

Do you think it will make me grow taller as well?
if u put yourself in a 12/12 photo period and drink 1 gallon of milk in the light cycle and sleep in the dark cycle. u will get taller.
usally with humans one leg gets taller than the other. to even your grouth out add co2. hope this helps.

used in conjunction with the Miracle grow spikes I think you will will get taller.If you get too tall you can just rub on some shortening cream.

Hell yeah, time to start using my HPS as a solarium and I'm going to try injecting nutrients and boosters. Will post my results.

Make sure you get some molasses in there too. gotta load up on carbs. Also some low stress training such as tae bo could help too. good luck.
