After a bit of research I think I'm better going with the latest tech being the 315w
Cheers for your help bro. You have a fuck load of knowledge on this shit!!
In the meantime i have a spare 125w cfl bulb. You think there would be any point dangling that in the middle as well, or just dangle it close to the plants and just move it in front of a different plant each day? It's spectrum is aimed at veg
So I've been drinking and decided to add another lamp to my 4x4, I have a 1k hps hanging high and a 600w sont plus hanging low.
My question is, is it worth the extra light. Going from 27c to 32c?
People moan about high temps but plenty of outdoor grows here would have experience way higher temps the 35c
32C too high. While another bulb might be helpful, if it degrades the environment too much then on balance it's not worth it.
Stack the 600W and 400W. Or two x 600W.

Hey ttystikk, would two 600w hps stacked be comparable to one 1k hps? How about heat wise
Thinking of maybe grabbing another 600w ballast.
I think the coverage if two bulbs would be way better than one.

After having seen how my girls respond to 315W CMH lights I'm considering suggesting to you that you run several of those in the silo. 2 per vertical meter sounds like a good place to start.
I plan to try something similar with my 860W CDM Allstart lamps, using a low frequency square wave ballast.
Wow are they running that cool. I really want to run the 315w, but its going to cost me $1,500 nzd to set up two.... Where as I can grab another 600w bulb and ballast for $200.
Not worth that cost increase, agreed.
It pisses me off, but give it another year or two and the prices will come down here.
Well, kits are $200US. Are you sure that Kiwi Kustoms would make you pay five times the cost?
