Hi there! My name is Brooke I'm from Canada. I've been a medicinal cannabis user and this is my first grow ever and I just brought thesse babies in this temporary set up indoors! Looking into buying an LED for now, or possibly even keeping this until I could afford a proper high pressure sodium setup, looking for all the advice I can get and the best equipment you guys recommend for the best bang for my buck :) thanks so much everybody look forward to hearing from you all! I've been feeding this good I bought off of a local here in my hometown, and watering distilled, I just recently tied down I will do it better :) thanksIMG_20190730_020004.jpg IMG_20190730_020636.jpg

a proper high pressure sodium setup,
IMO - CMH are considerably better than HPS, more light/w, less waste heat, and longer bulb life.
Phillips makes the best CMH bulbs at this time.

Also, you need more light in your temp setup, and pop the dome off the LED you're using.

Good luck

Don’t use distilled water. Use plain tap water. Suggest some light like a decent blurple to help keep heat down for now. Two friends use Viparspectra lights with good results. 600 advertised watts of higher. CMH is great for 3’X3’ grow area. Otherwise cheapest way is probably a 600 watt HPS to flower under.
