High all,
Semi noob here with a suplemental lighting question.
I'm currently planning out my new set up. Been away from growing for 5 years, and want to do it right this time.
My plan is to have 1- 28 sq' flowering chamber and 1- 28 sq' veg chamber. I'm looking to have a 600w HPS and a 600w MH respectively. This only works out to 24w/sq'. I read in an old book that I have that you want to shoot for 30-40w/sq'. Is this accurate info? Should I add some CFL lighting? I have to be careful with heat and electric usage.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
BTW, what are "reps", and what do I do with them?
