you where reading my other thread advocating the 4000k mh bulbs werent you?thats all i use is mh for the entire grow... for years now
$23 a bulb for 1000s 4000k.. case of 6 for $150....Same bulb at the grow store $85-95
better light distribution, more indirect light, and bulbs run way cooler. i run similar setup. minus the hood but when your in a 2x4 tent with 400w bare bulb vertically oriented , it is the hood.
i have recently. my MH plants are killing my HPS plants in quality and in overall happyness of the plant, although i contaminated my results by adding a 270w hps
hmmm ive done this, top notch results too.
tanning lights are mostly uva...and are more costly and cumbersome than what I listed...IMO a decent uvb meter is needed to do it right....more than 400uw/cm2 will decrease yield with no additional effecti thought its the UV rays from the MH that stimulate resin production. You could also use tanning lights. UV also destroys resin... so unless you know the perfect ratio of UV, you might do more harm than good bro
This is what almost everyone does
360* light.... not 180* and the other 1/2 bounced & reflected....using my light meter ...there is a noticable difference between them.
No...dont even know who you are.... if you look on other websites.... i tell everyone to use the sylvania bt56 for the entire grow

They try it...they are surprized by the results
In my 20 + of growing the kind.....I tired hps, combo and all mh... through multipul grows and experimentation...
IMO mh produces heavier densier buds... the end product is kick ass
Everyone should try their own experiments and go with what works best for them
think I'm try that never have to switch bulbs lol
Thank you. Am familiar with the Luxor. So more even distribution is the reason. Simplifies things as no need for light movers.
i believe that the Luxor equipped with this should kick assNo...dont even know who you are.... if you look on other websites.... i tell everyone to use the sylvania bt56 for the entire grow

i have a lumatek 600 hps. i kept blowing bulbs left and right until i shelled out the dough for an eye hortilux super hps. best bulb i ever bought. i even noticed a difference in the quality of buds, over the other hps bulbs i was using.edit, the reason i started to ask about the sunpulses in the first place was that i was running a digital ballast and was using eye hortilux blue brand bulbs, about $110 or so per..
about a month into a new bulb i went to check on the girls and the bulb had blew.. yeah, i was pissed to say the least.. the sunpulses like a few other brands like digilux and oshio are said to be made in conjunction with the higher frequencies that digital ballasts fire at, extending the life in the process..
Oh Christmas tree Oh Christmas tree.................thats all i use is mh for the entire grow... for years now
