MH or HPS for veg

[Zjc420]

Hey, I found 600 watt kits that come with both a 600w MH and a 600w HPS for $250 or i found a kit that comes with only the 600w HPS for $220, is it worth the extra $30 for the MH bulb with the kit? should i use it for vegging? or should i save $30 and just veg and flower under the HPS will the MH make a big difference in veg? throw me some opinions. Thanks.

For the extra $30, I'd go with the MH/HPS setup...if for no other reason than each bulb will last longer. Then again, I'd want the MH for veg anyway.

I use MH for veg. It has blue spectrum efficient for vegging. I then switch to HPS fo flower as it has Red spectrum. Do what u like. But MH is better for veg. Get it.

my grow box is built out of sheetrock, painted the inside flat white, caulked the cracks and seems, and it measures 46 1/2 inch tall 50 inch long and 24" deep a 600w should be good for that size right?

I have always used a HPS for veg and it works fine. Just a note to you
