haha i know that thanks though i have 4 23w 1600l 2700k right now
yeah i guess your right how many lumens would be good for my 3fth 22inw 2ft long box i know 4,00l pr sq foot but what do you think because im learning a little right now??? haha
Your going to need some 5500-6500K lights for veg as well.. 4x23W isnt going to be enough man. Thats only 92 watts. That wouldn't be ideal for even one plant.
Mercury Vapor is way wrong color spectrum, it's off in the purple side of blue and no good. You'd be better with a used 400w HPS Hortilux regardless, then get a new one after the first harvest.
Well, he's aiming for ~70 bux. A 400W Horti is well over 70 already.
EDIT:
Oh and T@ll, I saw the thread you were talkin about. From what I saw you were asking if you could daisy chain a few power strips to use with a HPS.
Don't daisy chain them. You could add as any as you wanted and it wont raise the amount of load it can handle. If your looking for a way to elongate the power cable, just get an extension cable? Different strips are rated differently. If your going to use a single strip as your global power point, then get one rated 15A @ 120V (or 115, same thing).
