That time again

Hi guys, hope all are happy and healthy.

Haven't grown for 5 years approx. Just ordered Royal Dwarf seeds, gonna give a go. Last outdoor grow gave me approx 10oz off of a few plants, no problems as such. Was a very basic grow.

This time I plan on using a light, my question is, would a 250w dual spec lamp be enough to cover 3 of these royal dwarf plants in 5l pots? they'll be in a shed outside. Since they're auto flowering, 18-6 be okay for the duration of the grow or go for 20-4?

Cheers guys.

Autos to maturity would be best in 10 liters min.

you get better lu/watt ratio with a 600w

I prefer 18/6 under my 600w

suppose you could go 20/4 under a 250/400w hps..?

welcome and good luck

Thanks mate. I think i'll probably go for a 600w then. Can i stick with just the one light, or do I need a dual spec light? Can you recommend any lights or kit I could get please?

Cheers

The newer digital 600w Mh/hps (dual) do rock
