How many plants can you flower (on average, i know it can vary) under a 400w HPS?

 

[lkbkr103]

3 125w CFL's for veg, 600w HPS for Flower

 

[That crazy vancouver guy]

to clone and veg...that great big nuclear explosion out in space spring to fall and 3 150w daylight CFL's during the winter, and a red spectrum 1000W MH to flower.

 

[smokybear]

400 watt hps all the way through. Gotta love outdoors though. Just my thoughts. Take care and be safe.

Just though id ask, but no one seems to be running high pressure mercury. why? and is it okay to use an hps though veg and flowering?

Do you mean Mercury Vapor? I don't think those are any good for horticulture. And yes you can use an HPS for all stages of growth but an MH will produce a shorter, bushier plant.

I use a Sunmaster 600W Cool Deluxe MH (6000K, 50000 lumens) for vegetative state, and a Hortilux 600W HPS (2050K, 88000 lumens) for flowering.

why is the poll closed. thats a bit rubbish!

I currently use cfls, but do have a 150 watt HPS to use in bigger spaces
