ya, man.. he needs to save a little cash before committing. A $30 light might give you 10-20grams of herb, is that worth the seeds, clones, time-spent, additional costs? You can get a 250w, or I started on a 400w for about $120.
250w $116

No. they are junk. if you can afford those you can afford the hps. i would suggest save of some money then buy a hps/mh 250 watt light. then you can grow a plant good.

yeah those are junk, I'd look into maybe strip leds for that price, check out Chronikool's grow with 5050's.

a 150 or 250 doesnt use that much for flower its only on 12 hrs a day. use cfl to veg them.

or even 8 hours and should work out cheaper cus you're using 140w with the cfl 24hr's im guessing is near double than a 150 hps
