Default Using Metal Halide In Conjunction with High Pressure Sodium During Flowering

Hi guy's.
I was thinking of the possibility of halfway thru my flower cycle running my 400 watt MH as well with the 2 400 watt HPSs??? Could I maybe use a Super Blue Halide Bulb and help in any way? What can expect noticibly about using the Halide with the HPS In midflower?
Thanks and Peace,
Med

Some think the more the merrier when it comes to more light of any spectrum
I believe you'll find both camps for and against with proof on both sides
Bigger bud for you anyway, go for it

Plant's love the blue spectrum thoughtout there entire life. Your plant's will love you if you give them both.
Full spectrum light is the key...

I am so excited about being able to manage 1200 watts and a climate in this small space. It's an amazing feeling and I think they will love the room to stretch when I remove the shelf. It's simple to remove and can be of benefit on my next group again. It worked out nicely this time.

I have a 560CFM Dayton 10" exhaust fan in the upper corner of the closet and a 15" Oscillating pedestal type fan not too mention plenty of fresh intake air from the adjoining room and celing fan. I also have a Holmes 1000sf Humidifier in the room nearby the closet set at 50% and it is now staying at around 48% and 78 degreesF. Pics on the way.
Peace,
Med

Very nice Light setup there kpin! I swear i'd give that a go in this lil closet if I had it in fron of me but I think 1200 will be kosher.LOL I am seriously thinking about cutting the closet except maybe for a small propagation chamber and use this entire Bedroom the next time and get some 1k watters. Dunno yet we'll just have ta see what we do in this closet first.LOL
Thanks and peace,

I just started some new girls under a 1K SolarMax Dual Arc run by a Quantum 1K dimable ballast. A buddy who works at a hydro store told me that they added this bulb to their store's grow and profuse blooming kicked in on all plants... Only day 2 of 12/12 but I'll let you know how things progress...

Happy Growing!
