I'm working with about $150 total and a rubermaid cabinet that's 16"Dx36"Wx36"T (just over 4sq.ft.) so a 150w bulb won't be enough but a 250w should be enough. If possible I'd like to find a fixture what can use both HPS and MH. Tho I'm open to using LED but I think they're a little out of my price range.
What do you all think? If anyone can suggest a good setup online or if anybody who's upgrading I'd buy a used 1...
I've had 4 successful grows with CFL's but after looking at my watts to lumens ratio and i'm thinking of investing into HID. Tho heat has always been my reason for using cfl. I live in AZ with only swamp cooling at my disposal. Currently I have over 500w between 2 setups. About 170 in my veg area on 2 little clones that are vegging and about 350 in my flower box with 1 plant. I think I could better use my electricity you know
