Metal Halide is usually used for veg. Where high-pressure sodium is used for flower. An HPS has a more red spectrum.

Not sure I would use the metal halide for flowering even if it has more power than your LED. Flowering plants really need the red spectrum.

Just my opinion.
 
I have over 2000w of led going at the moment I don't know much about the lights I just figured I could switch bulbs but maybe not I just wanna a few hundred watts for my bloom with the 2000w led also. Maybe I'll just sell them on Craig's list and get a real light. Or just but one of those Goliath black diamond LEDs but that's 1000$ wtf lol I love growing but not the price for a real deal light
