i have a dual lamp it fires up mh and hps so i fig i'll keep the light 12 hps for the flowering 1 and when it gos in the dark put the mh back in. or should i just leave the hps on 24hrs?

why don't you just run both? Or you could just flower with the metal halide, it'll get you some dense nugs, I would just leave the MH on 24 hours. Or wait, do you have a switchable ballast? That would still be a pain in the ass switching the bulbs constantly...

i'd just leave the hps on tbh m8 but then im a lazy fucker. i do find that using hps in veg gives em shorter nodes wich makes for more solid buds :) but they always look greener and healthier uner mh. why not just use the mh a mate of mine recently flowered a load of c99 under a mh and had a right result with it

a switchable ballast. i only need to do it for like 4 more days so just leave the mh? its reall not to bad to switch the bulb since i have to go to all the trouble of putting the plant in a dark spot

Yah people forget that HPS is only really considered superior to MH because it yields more. MH will still produce premium quality ganja, and some say more potent.:bigjoint:
