MH Vs HPS When Vedging

i'm under the impression that i shold be using a metal halide when vedging, then switching to a high pressure sodium lamp when flowering?

i currently have a 400w MH for my vedging plants, but my last grow (lowryder), i yielded close to 4oz off 4 plants, which is the maximum for that strain with a 400w HPS from start to finnish.

what im asking is, should i ditch the mh for vedging now, or is it best to keep it.

heres my grow btw.

I would keep the MH, the blue spectrum is better for the plants for sure when vegging. U can use the HPS from start to finnish but just from my experience i feel like the plant gets a little bushier with MH for veg

Newer CMH bulbs beat HPS all-around. They even make warm MHs.

So you bought a new light even though you were doing perfectly. So NOW you're not sure what to do? Even though you've already done it?

well when i used HPS all the way through, it was wth lowryder, and lowryder start flowering 2 weeks into growth.

the grow im doing at the moment is non-automatic flowering, so theres new things to me.
