Those special lights are definitely better value for money in the long run. More import are things like good odor control and ventilation when growing indoors, neither of which don't come cheap. If you're broke, just grow outdoors and save your money to buy the proper equipment. This will mean you're limited to when you can grow but you'd be hard pressed to replicate 10000 lumens per square foot in an artificial environment with no money. The electricity cost itself will set you back a fair bit.im a teen with no job and no money so i was wandering do u have to use those special lights or could you use normal lights and does it need nutreints or not? thx
Outdoor growing is really cheaper..in that i agree with you. But about odor controul... it really depends on situation & local law activity...Those special lights are definitely better value for money in the long run.
