2 150hpsvs1 300?

[highdro]

Just wondering if two 150 Watt hps is as good as one 300 watt hps?

its a tradeoff. a 300 is more efficient in terms of lumens/watt so you'll get more light overall but two 150's are more flexible for moving around a grow space so you can get the light to where you want it.

6500 lumens from the bulb, it can't hurt..

the 300 is about 15% more efficient than two 150 watt lights.

sure, the 70 is helping

great looking plant. looks like your pic got an interference pattern with your lights. try moving the plant out of the grow space for pics.

To my knowledge there's no such thing as a 300 watt hps! they have 50,70,150,250,400,600,1000 hps's
