whats best to do ??

just wondering ..would i save electric if i used my 250hps instead of my 500w radiator. im using the radiator to get the temp up but its still only sitting at 21 and thats lights on, so was thinking bout adding the 250hps and maybe just turning the radiator half way down so that ill b using 500w in total but at least the plants b getting more light, or duz the electric not work like that ?

always better to use a light for heat as you'll get more bud as a biproduct

strange thing is the light was out and the temp was 20 thru the day and now its only sitting at 21 with the radiator in and the 400 hps on. must just b cuz its at nite im guessing, but were gona get really bad weather in the uk soon, so god knows wot ill do then , maybe have to put in another heater but cant c another 1 doing 2 much, my tent size is 1m x 1m x 2m high.. gona bubble wrap the pots 2morrow also
