HPS and MH recommendation

Post by Daikatana »

Hey fellas,

I will buy 600W HPS and MH lamps. I'm not in US or EU so i can not find the specific items that you'll recommend me. That's why we need to discuss about lumens and everything so that i'll go buy something similar. I know the lumens should be high. I've found a bulb from general electric with around 90k lumens. Would that be fine? What else should i consider?

Thank you all in advance.

90k lumens is def right in line pal. You should be fine. I recommend not dimming them though. In a perfect world you’d have the right size bulb For each setting if it is a dimmable ballast. As long as it is a 600w bulb youll be good buddy.

Osram are a top make but myself i just use cheaper Omega or Sunmaster at around 90.000 lumens, prolly Omega is better of the 2 nowadays. Maybe look aty dual spectrum too those do both veg and bklooom so no need for 2 bulbs. :)
