| Howdy Y'all I gots some more for ya. 1) How long befre the HPS bulbs start to lose lumens and or change spectrums so I know when to replace my bulb? 2) Would it be worth it to buy a spendy Hortilux type bulb instead of the inexpensive Sylvania grow bulbs? 3) I know that the HPS is supposed to be the best all around bulb but would it be worth it to get a MH conversion bulb for veg? Thanks again!!!!

| Hey closet, you paid attention hey? Cool. It is actually believed to grow all the way thru vegging and flowering using an hps is best. They than suggest to use mh for the last two weeks. I just use hps all the way. Peace~

| Ive done HPS all the way as well. Great results. I used MH for veg this time....Havent noticed that much of a difference. They say that MH during veg helps keeps internodes tighter. Well....In my experience...its more the strain and genes that decide that. I have one plant that I alternate lighting on. One day Mh...The next HPS. Still in veg right now. But I'll flower it the same way and see what comes. MH/HPS...You be the judge.

| I guess I should also throw in there that Greg Green's Cannabis Breeder's Bible states that using MH for veg and HPS for flowering contributes to higher female ratios. Take it for what its worth. I veg'd 10 plants and got 3 males....70% aint bad.
