600w is the best value for money regards lumens per watt if anyone is interested. thats not saying 1000 isnt a better bulb to run its just more economical running the 600's

oh shit i hope i didnt start one big arse debate. thats part my opinon and part fact, take it or leave it :)

EDIT - 600w HID either HPS or MH

why do people bother with 1000W then? surely they're just losing money lol. Im not debating the fact las but im just wondering if all those 1k'ers realise they're losing?

What are those long, white things sticking out of the cubes?
when i take my snips they always do the lean to one side trick for the 1st day so the cut up coat hanger is just a bit of support :)

wow, i suppose in theory u gould grow bigger buds with 2x 1000s but its more effecient to run 3x 600's i guess...

cheers pukka, long time coming lol. real fuckin exo is hard 2 come by round here considering i aint a million miles from luton lol

Don't know if you'd have bigger buds, las. I think thousands just have a larger foot print and deeper light penetration. Good for trees.

if you're running 1k lights then you aren't growing for percy are you lol, and surely being efficient is the most important factor for growing commercial. I dunno man, just doesn't make much sense to me. Running 2x600W would be so much better.

lol if you lived somewhere where it was cold year-round, that would be a class way to heat your house, just have to make sure you have a decent filter otherwise your whole house will be stinkin of ganj haha.
