I used to buy into this too. It's good for general rules though that they can double or triple in height, especially good to say when yur dealing with an unknown strain. There are some that only go about a foot taller after flipping.
What strain is it grrouch? I'm currently growing LA Confidential, and it only grows an aditional foot during flower. Of course different phenotypes will have different effects. Knowing what you have will make it so more help can be given.

Craigslist has tons of used 400 watt HPS lights and metal halide lights for sale everywhere I have been. Asking prices range from $20 to $80 for a good one complete with bulb. These units are powered by a ballast/transformer (most are convertible 120/240 so be sure it is your voltage) contained in a utility box that has a hook from which the light is hung. This adds to the overall length of the unit. The bulb screws into the socket after the reflector is clipped on. They are available ready to plug in.

OK these are usually from big jobs where they replaced these lights with energy smart technology. Usually parking garages, warehouses and anyplace else you've seen the orange glow. So fire that unit up BEFORE buying it to see if it still works and if the bulb will light enough to be worth using.

The reflectors are usually plastic domes. They are designed to throw light 80%/20% with the 20% deflected upwards and the majority deflected down. I sprayed the interior of one with "chrome" spray paint for less than $3.99. Works great for the price to say the least. I bought 2 for $150 and wished immediately I had offered less when he snapped it up. My veg room now has 800 watts covering 32' square feet fairly well.

I have new 1000 watters I use but for cheap lights to veg or flower alone these cannot be beat so long as they are good to go when you buy them.
