Sub what lights do yo use????

i have a 30'' by 5' closet lit right now by two high bay lights both 250 watt MH and HPS. I found i deal on a 400 lumetek kit cheap and a hortilux blue. I wanna know weather i should go with that or a 400 CMH? Any body got any input on them from what i have read CMH have a bad ass spectrum! they both are close to full spectrum.Going to up grade very soon and want some suggestions thanks

I am using a 400 watt hps ballast & bulb in a cabinet close to your dimensions & when I asked him about lighting his response was a Hortilux HPS bulb is the way to go

Hope this helps

just have read alot and i've used either just MH or a combo with great results and looking at the spectrum(hurtilux is very very close) they are basically full spectrum and just from folks at hydro stores along with many readings on forums seem that full spectrum is the tits. also i notice better trichh. formation and i know a few especially old timer will back me up, due to the uv light in the MH.if you read skunk the rev also flowers under MH ..any other thought just wanna get some differing opinions to better make my selection
thanks guys

If you have the means & time a comparison is always welcome. I don't have the means at the moment and the HPS has worked just fine for me.


Glad to help & good luck
