I would go with HSP/MH but can’t control the heat with out an ac unit. Screw it, I’ll go led’s.This article is a few years old but was helpful to me in seeing test results for different spectrums in various light systems. I dont have this brand but even tho I have what looks like a blurple it's actually more like the white leds. It has the uv that may or may not be useful as well as the ir (far red). I do wish I would have gotten 2 1500w instead of just 1 2000w, to get coverage in 4x4 I have to raise single light too high so am drastically losing intensity. With new qb to add this week I can finally fix this, have not been happy with size, quality looks nice but size is terrible compared to previous hps but I think I can fix it with more intensity

Good luck with the new light !New light came in, hanging that tonight. Finally got my preferred cloning gel in too. Clonex works but I like Olivia's better, 90-95% vs 85-90% success rates for me
I used to have few 1000w hps when I had larger grows. Not enough power or ac in this apt so gotta do led til I move in couple years. Hps was great but I think led will go a long way in next couple yearsI would go with HSP/MH but can’t control the heat with out an ac unit. Screw it, I’ll go led’s.
I have ac , just not enough lolI used to have few 1000w hps when I had larger grows. Not enough power or ac in this apt so gotta do led til I move in couple years. Hps was great but I think led will go a long way in next couple years
I'm actually going to be donating most of my books (I have 100s of freaking books) to library when we are allowed in public again, been collecting them for years but I've read them all so many times that I havent touched most of them in couple years, sad to let them go but keeping this much unused stuff is practically hoarding lol.Have too much? You are gonna need a bigger boat....err tents!
I picked up the new girls yesterday, they're in isolation in the bathroom until I can be sure I've taken care of thrips & fungus gnats are controlled (I'll probably always have some gnats, they never go away completely around here no matter what I do). I'm still concerned about mites too, saw a tiny red thing scurry across floor in flower tent when I was moving everything out to clean for powdery mildew but whole tent was sprayed with alcohol & all medium has been peroxide so hopefully if i keep that regimen then there wont be a problem. Doing all this in 2 bedroom apt is tricky. Cant really keep out critters as well as i could when i had a basement, such tight quarters that there's no where to separate outside from inside. Just watching for the land to come up for sale, i know it's out there, not good at being patientDid some excessive deleafing in case I missed any pm & chopped 2 (original c99 & Skywalker OG clone that was close to it), the other 2 (og kush clone & original skywalker og) were completely deleafed of fan leaves & returned to flower. Not sure how alcohol/water & peroxide sprays affected them but I'll take my chances on it rather than risk spread of pm, never had it in flower before, only on clones in domes few times in 20 something years. I saw a scurrying small red bug to when I pulled everything out to completely disinfect tent, might've been spider mite but not sure, never had those but hopefully alcohol took care of that too. Sprayed veg tent & plants with alcohol as well last night, tents are only a foot apart, cant risk any critters moving to another area.
On a brighter note, I pick up banana mango, animal mint cookies, & lemon haze girls in couple days (always up for new stuff even if I have too much lol)
