Best 3 Light Setup?

Hey guys,

Upgrading my operation soon and was going to employ 3 lights in a 24 or 18 plant setup. Previously I've just been a 600w HPS user but was interested in a combination of 1 metal halide and 2 sodiums, given that the inclusion of both spectrums seems to be more and more the way heavily promoted. I'm not really interested in investing in 3 metal halides just for the veg stage, as that tends to be pretty brief (and I've had no problems getting rapid growth under sodiums) so was wondering would anyone with experience of such a setup reccomend a 2 sodium, 1 MH setup over three sodiums, or just stick with the cheaper, less heat producing 3 sodium option?

Cheers

I'm running a 3 light setup in my flower room.
It's 1-600w then 1-1000w then 1-600w.
The 100w is actually a Hortilux Super Blue which is a 600w Hps/400wMH.
So I really have 3-600wHPS and 1 400wMh.
I use these on an 8x4 tray with air-cooled hoods and A/C.
