hey everyone. quick question.
alright. its been almost 2 years solid now.. that I have been growing as a hobby. Not only growing the whole time.. but reading on new methods and old methods.. and the such.
well, once I first actually started growing.. I was using my 'SunSystems' 400watt for all my grow needs.
Well, I sold the lamp system... and started using high wattage CFL bulbs. Now, let me get one thing clear first... I have nothing against people who are using CFL bulbs to grow. CFL bulbs work really well for growing. Especially during the VEG. cycle.
I know this because thats what I'm currently still using. However, during flowering??? ehhh CFL bulbs will do the job.. its just.. it seems like they slow the flowering process down (among other things)... seems like it takes longer.
Plus.. with HPS lighting??? Your buds will DEF be bigger and more dense.. than if you were to grow the same buds under CFL bulbs. Also.. it just seems like the HPS lighting.. it seems it speeds up the growth of the plant all together ya dig?
I'm still going to be using CFL bulbs.. but I really want to add a HPS lighting kit to the mix.
My question is.. anyone know who has the cheapest HPS/MH lighting kits?
I don't need anything over 250watts... (for security reasons.. mainly fire hazards.)
Thanks in advance to those who post back.
peace.
