250 is gud for 5 plants...stil the more u thro t more d chances ;)...i gues its ok to use both at the same time but i wud not recommend dat as it will have a difference for sure rather than bein consistent...

nice 1 mate , wasnt to sure because i read on a few sights saying your not meant to use a hps light during veg just metal halide , i was thinking that might have been the cause of the low yield but then again i didnt even know what type of seeds i grew them from , still turned out ok for my first grow , this one will be better and bigger i hope scince i know the type im growing ect , its all trial and error i suppose , but im buying a 400w dual spectrum light next week so thats a bonus :)

yea better luck next time....generaly bothe the li8s are from 2 diff. specturms...Mh are gud in vegg n HPS for flower....on the odr hand CFLs are effiecient and economical too...a burden of heat reduces if u ask me....gud for u that u got a 400w i have one too altho dint get the chance of utilizin it...:P

I'd say yes see some expert grows vids they mix both HPS and MH 60/40.
Wish someone would give me a free MH already got a 400 hps lol

add the mh mate it will help the more usable light you can get over your plants the better off they'll be in regards to growth rate and yeild, people mix lights all the time especially mh and hps, mh used during flower is supposed to help in trichome production and the hps is used for weight using the 2 together should only improve your bud mate
