dont have to look at the link to know that hps will outgrow cfl's any day especially wit a dual spectrum bulb... so no in did not check the link and my advice remains the same bro.. take the time to save the cash and get yourself a digital ballast quantum sells a 1000 watt dimmable ballast ( can b run at 500 watts 750 watts or 1000 ) for 350 bucks.. invest the money and you will not regret itYou guys apparently didn't look at the link he gave.
50/50 is perfect for freshwater and saltwater aquariums: 50% 10,000K Daylight and 50% Actinic 03 Blue
That's some shit I've never seen before, 10,000K of blue spectrum? Sounds pretty kickass, however, I know nothing about these particular bulbs and at 20watts, you'd need a lot of them. These bulbs would be vegging only I would assume.
Yeah you're right about HPS>CFL, no doubt about it. However, I will say that for people who don't have the funds for the HID system itself, let alone the ventilation requirements (dryer hoses/inline fan/etc.), CFL's are a great alternative. It's possible to grow some really dank buds with CFL's.
Understand where your coming from.....but not need for 1000 hps im not growing a farm. Just a couple plants lol....so ill prolly just go with the 250 hps for $130.
