Ok so question for you growers... I'm gonna try an experiment with lighting and to see.if the effects are similar or a huge difference. OK well I'm going to be taking my 1000 Watt mh out of the room and put in a 400 watt hps in the veg room now I have heard the red spectrum in veg will allow more calyx pods to appear but have the problem of trying to flower if I have them in there to long under red spectrum hps so I'm also going to be adding a t12 f20 cool white triple bulb in there to give more even white/blue spectrum. The light cycle will remain 24/0.
I have also thought of going a little bit cheaper route by getting 2 8 bulb T5 4 foot florescent. The only thing I do not like is.that they will stretch inside of slow grow and stack nodes and calyx pods, with the 1000 watt mh they will slower grow but stack growth like crazy for more production in flower but having the 1000 watt mh in a 5x5x8 in a room even with cooled hood the light intensity is still enormous off that bulb and still generates "heat". so I'm trying a little.bit of.a lighter bulb and softer tone red in veg to see if Temps drop. Please leave comments if you have tried before would like to read others results
