just got done a grow with a 150hps.........it has no penetrating power, for me the top canopy was fine but everything under it was fluffy popcorn bud. if your going to use it just get cfl's below that canopy.
150w HPS - will it be enough?

right on brother- 
- so is that definitely enough for 2 plants to reach 2 ft or enough just for one? loll, as you can see lots of ideas are jumbled here.

they were going to be no bigger than a ft or two (2ft) in total.
how many ft/inch of penetrating power does it have?

the hps is already in that format (red/orange spec. wise) so i was thinking maybe add some daylight cfls ?

adding xtra lights will always help out better and having the daylight cfls will keep the plant more bushy then lengthy.

Its my first grow so I cant say much about it aside from what i've seen so far.
I started under 22k lumens of CFLS then swithced to this setup.
Made a big difference on lower leaves/branches.

sounds great, hopefully i can at least get something near 7-11 g's off 1.
i really only want to test this and see how well it taste.
nothing to fancy. i was told i should grow only one plant (got a raw diesel and bubba in there) and just go with the one. but i'd like to bust out both of them

how did it make a bigger difference?- and penetrating power wise, with cfls you need to surround them bishes with em, what do you need to do with the 150? i know i might serve well on it's on but idk?

well damn, over 11k + the 16k, now a bad setup but i don't have a lot of money so should i just go off the bubba plant (1 instead of with 2)?
maybe the 16k lums will be enough for 1- or would 2 plants suck it up?
