hps for veg?

[wyteberrywidow]

flows are better for veg because 1 they are also good for clones and 2 you can get them in 4 foot length and such and use few of them and still get good veg growth but for flowering you want to go with atleast CFLs to get a decent result

please are you using an hps to judge??i rooted clones with a 150 hps so u can root clones with a hps...i keep my 400hps wwithin 4 feet of my plants no burns and my growth from my plants will make your plants look like seedlings.
1-hps
2-mh
3-t5
4-cfl
5-led
6-t8
7-t12

is there any way i could get a good yield using 2 t5 fluoros?

 

[wyteberrywidow]

you can get like 7-14 grams to smoke.

thanks for the others I didn't know about mh and the fish take tube lights

 

[jooooooosh1934]

i have the lights like 2 inches from the tops and still nothing

 

[wyteberrywidow]

all those lights will work but sorry t 12 go before t8

i have the lights like 2 inches from the tops and still nothing

well then its deff need better lights or more lights of proper specs and maybe proper flowering plant food

 

[jooooooosh1934]

i also have the flora series nutrients from general hydro. and new seedlings just sprouted yesterday, maybe i could expirement? any suggestions

 

[wyteberrywidow]

add some more house lamps around until you get some more t5s or a hps

 

[TGFW21]

I would recoment either get a hps or T5 if not then go for CFLs

 

[jooooooosh1934]

i have t5's im thinkin about gettin 2 250w dual spectrum cfls and just ,aking a horizontal housing for them. will that work any better?

 

[wyteberrywidow]

you can get a 250 watt hps and that would be more better than 2 250 watt cfls.and less energy

 

[jooooooosh1934]

i have a 100w hps bulb but nothing else lol

 

[wyteberrywidow]

well 2 250 watt cfls will cost more than one 250 watt hps the price for a hps is 117.99

 

[jooooooosh1934]

with the housing and ballast and everythin?
