i used to use a HPS light but then i got tired of all the heat buildup. im not a commercial grower but i have had closet setups in the past for personal use and medicinal uses. ive found with mine that if you go with a strait 18/6 timing on the lights you cant go wrong in your vegg cycle ! i am running a norther lights/white widow cross my friend came up with about 6 years ago and mine loves it when you bring the lights up to 20/4 after initial baby vegg (about 1 ft tall) so might want to experiment with that some if you like because mine is a cross and not a strait strain so not sure about your application. i use strait floro's for my grows now but when i was using HPS i used to put them under the bloom lights at around 5 feet tall or about a week after i topped them but I'm not sure of your topping or just doing a strait grow. for bloom cycle always go with a strait 12/12 till the tricomes become cloudy and start to turn. HOPE THIS HELPS YOU OUT !!
