gt 1 26 watt daylight puts out 1600 lumens. compared to a 400 watt hps which puts ou 55,000 lumens for an agro sun bulb.

That is true. I started out small and that is how most new people that want to start this as a hobbie should do it. Also cfl will not burn the plant even if it is right on top of the plant. But soon they want bigger and better stuff

it's all good bro, don't get an mh just get a hps with a mh conversion buld and you should be as good as gold. Also a 400 watter will cover 4x5 feet. So it depends on how many plants you want to grow.god damn i might as well get a 400w mh?
how many square foot that will cover and at what height? thanx every1 i kno i hav alot of questions

well with a 400 watter you can grow at least 7 good plants in full bloom.
you will need a hps 400 watt ballast, 400 watt conversion mh bulb and a 400 wat hps bulb

If you got 120 sites you'll need at least 2 1000 watters. which = high electric bill and mad airflow (fans and exaust)

but if you want to get them going straight for now get 10 floros and place them 1 inch above them with really good fans.
