Pre What kind of light did you get?? Ive been looking into making a grow room with my tax return money. been looking alot at the leds but im not so sure at this moment. Hmm always a project to try and figure out how I want things to go, but i've realized that the more i put in in the begging the better my results should be.
well my original light setup is a 400w MH 3200k sunmaster warm deluxe bulb, the one i just picked up is a unknown hps bulb with 600w electronic ballast that is made for MH or HPS, no switch?, oh and a hydrofarm inline blower and can filter 2600. now this is where you will shit yourself, my 400w setup cost me 50 bucks, and my 600w setup plus canfilter and blower cost me 170.
so yeah, I get all my stuff pre-loved and in great working order, I would suggest not going with LEDs until the technology is really figured out, looks like some work, and others not so much, IMO the most important thing is to broaden you light spectrum, I think this is best acheived through HID, however certain CFL setups can work very nicely i think those are best for additional lighting.
So if I where you I would get both a warm deluxe MH and HPS of whatever size your space and pocket book can afford even like a 400w MH for veg and then just add a 250w HPS when you want to flower should make for some tight nugglits
