250w MH or HPS


Recommended Posts

Hello everyone,

 

I have decided to lash out and buy a decent light to keep my mothers under instead of just using fluros, I would prefer to just get a 250w MH or HPS ( prefer MH) but I cant seem to find any 250W for sale anywhere??

 

Could someone help with stores, would prefer not to buy a 400w if I dont have too

still like my flouros 50/50 green $3per 4 foot triphospher/ $11per sylvania grolux, its about time i replace the globes mums just are not fast at filling canopy aftyer a round of cuts.

 

TIme for new globes ($100or leSs) old globes going on 5 years running non stop since day1 at 24/0 or 18/6 for more than 5 years in that time one broke i snapped a tab when changing a starter/igniter.

i find this flouro setup ideal for all my veg needs rooting cuts, clone rooting, low cost on power for what comes out of this room, mother plants and spare room to hold clones in waiting mode until i have space free to flower.

 

a single flouro batten and ballast costs $10 need to replace the stock warm white globe to a $11 pink grolux or AND $# triphospher So it costs about $20 for not wired flouro batten, a few meters of wire($5) and Male power plugs($3ea) per batten. I BUIlt my double level veg room 2x 60cm deep x 120cm($foot to fit flouro) wide x 1m tall veg rooms with under $100 of lighting over 5 years.. not bad really
