Looks nice. last 4 days i also think to buy some mh,hps lights. its much easier to find those kind of lights. But i have very tight space. I really want to know how much heat do this bulbs emmit?Don't waste your time with autos strains or cfl lighting. Here is what good seeds, genetics and a 600 watt mh hps combo can do. I get anywhere from 2 to 3.5oz a plant easily with 4-6 plants under that light at the same time. Strain depending. I only grow indicia and hybrids. No sativas.View attachment 820705 View attachment 820706 View attachment 820707 View attachment 820708 View attachment 820709
No,its too earlyDid you top it?
I run a 600watt mh/hps combo, one for veg mh and hps for flowering. Mh is not too hot but the hps does create heat. I bought a complete set that came with mh bulb,hps bulb, dimmable digital ballast good for both bulbs, hanging clips and rope and a glass inclosed hood.This hood has two 6inch hole on either side to cool and vent the heat. If setup correctly and vented correctly, you won't have any problems just good harvests. A 6 inch carbon filter is recommended but not cheap. Hope this helped.Looks nice. last 4 days i also think to buy some mh,hps lights. its much easier to find those kind of lights. But i have very tight space.

Today i bought 250w hps and mh bulbs. installed them but mh is not bright as cfls. I dont mind odor. Do carbon filters improve buds or its just for odor?I run a 600watt mh/hps combo, one for veg mh and hps for flowering. Mh is not too hot but the hps does create heat.

0.6 square metres. It was wardrobe. W:56cm L:100cm H:215cmHow big is your grow area? If you think heat is going to be an issue you can look at quantum boards or cobs. Lots of ppl here have had great success with both and they run cooler then the options you listed.
IM not sure how bright a 250watt is but a 600 watt is super bright plants veg fast. Carbon filters is for the smell only. When growing high end big buds, it should reak! Carbon filters use correctly will kill all smell. Worth the extra cashToday i bought 250w hps and mh bulbs. installed them but mh is not bright as cfls. I dont mind odor.

I'm no lighting expert at all so maybe wait for another to answer that, but that 250w puts you close to 40w/sq ft. which I think is not bad. Trying to control the heat (depending on ventilation and source of ventilation) might be a challenge. I think 600w would be way to much for that space but again I am no lighting expert. I seen @sixstring poked his head in here. If you can pick his brain on it you will get very solid advice.0.6 square metres. It was wardrobe. W:56cm L:100cm H:215cm
I am skipping carbon filter. It is too much money. I measured light its 8000 lumen but 315 watt cfl was 30000 lumen at same level. On the box of bulb writes it is emmit more than 300 °C but from 10 cm i dont even fell 50CIM not sure how bright a 250watt is but a 600 watt is super bright plants veg fast.

Are these the ballasts for your lights? If so I hate to tell you that these maybe the problem. Grow specific hps and mh complete kits are higher quality, digital ballasts are fan cooled, dimmable and make your bulbs put out like they should. These kits are not expensive. I paid $300 for 600 watt kit that time after time prodoses anywhere from 15 to 19oz every crop. If I we're you I would take back and look for a 400 watt set. If not try your new set up and see how it goes. If you don't think the mg is bright enough then put plants closer to the light. Plants will react to being under the right spec for veg. Good luckToday i bought 250w hps and mh bulbs. installed them but mh is not bright as cfls. I dont mind odor. Do carbon filters improve buds or its just for odor?
If you put it in the closet and run it for 18 hrs then check the temp you will see what I'm talking about. I think most would agree the CMH might be preferable to the 250w mh/hps if the temps can be kept in check. Still think you would benefit most from QB's or Cobs. Hopefully sixstring pops in to help ya is all I can say. As for the carbon filter you can easily make a DIY one cheap for that size grow. Lots of vids on youtube and i'm sure you will find everything you need to do so right here on this forum if you search.I am skipping carbon filter. It is too much money.

Its impossible to find that kind of devices here. I can raplece them tomorrow for 400 watt but my grow space is 0.6 square meter it too much think. Thank youAre these the ballasts for your lights?

I get those new bulbs for 7 dollars each and i paid 35 dollars for whole setup. Its cheaper than my CFL setup. I looked up this bulbs on web its expensive. Already ordered total 120w cree cobs in white,photo red,royal blue coloursIf you put it in the closet and run it for 18 hrs then check the temp you will see what I'm talking about.

if the mg is only putting 8000 then yes then yes that low. My 600mh puts out 50,000 lumens so very different. Why not use both lights for veg. I am sure your plants will love it.I am skipping carbon filter. It is too much money. I measured light its 8000 lumen but 315 watt cfl was 30000 lumen at same level.

As long as you don't a height resection you will be fine. Grow tents for 400watt setup is only 6 feet tall. Can't grow really tall plants but then again you don't have to. Small topped plants will grow great yeilds. I do recommend venting any heat from grow space. This is just a good growing practise and should always be done.I did some calculation too.

Just harvested some Pink Tahoe grown under my 600 watt. Here are some pics of what it is capable of growing. Im pleased. Not saying it's the.best way just works for me.trust me its more than a good growing practice its absolutely required lol unless you are doing a sealed room with dehumidi
I am from TO but I am also French you rasist prick! Are you that small minded that all French are dumb or what? Really ? Not cool
Only a ture rasist dumb ass would laugh at his own rastist comment. As I can see from how much time you have spent on here, you are most likely lonely and have no friends. Sorry gotta go, got lots to do, yes I have a life. Hahahaha
