You might want to consider getting a metal halide conversion bulb for veg. During that time your plants need more blue light, as opposed to your HPS's reddish/yellow light. You could still get by with the HPS all the way through, though.

Is it my light or does a mh produce way more heat and brightness than a hps of the same watts!

Should they both have the same effect when you look at them like the same intensity/brightness?

Reason why is my hps puts out way less heat and brightness i can stare at it, but not my mh.both are 400watt,
