Plants been vegging for 5 weeks in DWC tub running two 42w CFL lights.
I think soon my plant will be ready to flower, so right now since this is my first grow I need to find out what light I want to get so I can flower my plants correctly, on a budget.
I been searching ceramic metal halide light bulbs (CMH) and it seems like they are the best for my situation.
I am looking for best possible light that produces best bud for watt output and least heat produced,
Highest CMH goes in 400watts and they produces less heat then a high pressure sodium watt for watt.
CMH are new bulbs but HPS is what everyone has used and have good results, so I am trying to find out if I should try out something new like CMH for my first grow or just use 400w HPS?
