zen-ken Posted February 2, 2023 Share Posted February 2, 2023 No....don't get a 250W HPS....it will do one plant...at best....poorly. At a minimum a 315CMH for two plants in a 1x1 .....you can pick them up for pence second hand.....Just dont cheap out on the Bulb Philips for the win 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although more expensive in the outlay initially I ran two 100W LED boards that could easily do 3 plants in a 4ftx2ft area. I tried four plants in 25l pots but I didn't see much difference in the final crop. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eldo Posted February 5, 2023 Share Posted February 5, 2023 If you going to go HPs get an adjustable ballast. Can pick one up for next to nothing from the marketplace then you have the option to veg under 250 and flower under 400 I'd deffo be looking more into spending a little more on a led initially and saving on lecy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest anarchycamp Posted February 5, 2023 Share Posted February 5, 2023 33p here, man I was going to do a small 250w grow but it seems like I'd be better keeping the big tent up:( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dunno man, I used to grow 6 x C99 in a 2x3ft space with a converted 250w floodlight when I started here 20 odd years ago. I certainly wouldn't go back to that setup now but you'd be surprised what they're capable of! Edited February 5, 2023 by BushDoctoR 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
