^ Well, that's not his question, I think. I understand that he's asking IF you don't have a MH, which is the next best choice - to use your HPS to flower or use fluorescents?
I wouldn't use a standard HPS, but you might do alright if you're using a Son-T or enhanced/super type of HPS as they are designed with a bit of extra blue in them. Still, it's expensive to run and produces a lot of heat - worth it if it's the right tool for the job but maybe not, otherwise.

That was the other one i was looking at.
The only reason why i went with the one from HTG is b/c i'd recived my mylar from them so i figured i might as well go with 'em again.
I'm surer it'd do the job.

Hell yeah! I like your confidence in me!
They are looking real sexy!So i started darkness at 1pm today. I will resume lights at 7pm tmrw. I took measurment of the height.
So Droopy is 14 1/2in tall
Sweetness is 12 1/8in tall
And Shorty is 11in tall!!!
Got some pics from before the night cycle i'll try and post them tonight. If not they'll be up tmrw as a before/after type thing......actually that is what i'm going to do.
I'm hoping to be able to tell sex after this little darkness thingy.

the dark time is the hardest for me, up untill flower I could peek at them any time I wanted. Make sure the get 0 light during dark time now that you are in flower. I had to put tape on the light of my power strip.
I think I was able to tell sex about one week in?

Ok so this is the youngest one. Sorry i don't have pictures from before the darkness.
They got erased somehow? But this littl one was 11" before dark and 12 1/2" after i hit the lights back on!
Can anybody tell sex yet? I'm still thinking its a little early.

This is the one they call sweetness!
I do think this one is female. There are a few little hairs. I can't really get a good pic of them but i'll keep watching them. But the two horns look like unpistilated female preflowers
Whatcha think?

Thanks. I wish i could get pics of those tiny hairs i found. Maybe in a day or so.

If you can see two hairs at each spoot then it's a girl. Mine had very small hairs at first I had to use my reading glass to see them. It took 3 more days to get a good pic, The males came fast and were easy to tell. My girls were shy and took longer to show. So don't worry if you can't tell yet.
