can anyone help me out with a stupid question

[new*at*this]

O.k so i have four plants under a 250 watt mh i have big bang pipi and gdp and a strain i like to call alex well i used my 250 mh through my whole veg cycle it was a conversion bulb i just put my hps back in but it just does not seem as bright as it used to im guessing it has to many hours on it and im 4 days into 12/12 i wanted to know if i would get good results with the mh through the whole flowering process i wanna replace the bulb but just got laid off and dont think i can afford that kind of money yet. any info would be greatly appreciated thanks.

it would be better if you could use a HPS light for flowering, the orange hue simulates natural sunlight if it would be flowering time. But a MH light would be just fine i went through a few crops with a MH through flowering with no problems whatsoever, but if i was you i would go with a HPS if possible

it could just be that your used to the extremely bright blue light emitted from the MH bulb, i look at the two different lights all the time and one definitely looks different after u look at the other.

I was also thinking that crazy rite it just seems like the light is only hitting the plants where they are under it,i don't feel a though I'm getting my 3x3 square that'd supposed to come from the hydrofarm reflector but I have cfl suplemented lighting on the sides not getting the other light idk maybe I will just stick with it u guys have been very helpful thanks
