4ftx4ft growroom

what kind of lighting should i be using?

i think im going to grow my first plant using sunlight but after i get those lowryder seeds im going to stick those in my already finished growroom(- lights)

anyone know what wattage etc i should be using?

 

Well with lowriders try aiming at around 150 + watts of Flurecent tubing Cool whites with Blue spectrum tubes as well. I have 160 watt cool white fluro and the buds on my normal plants are producing pritty well, slow but well, not to mention I can see the thc on it too .

 

600 hps.

 

A room that size you would think a 400 hps would work fine but as meangreen points out a 600hps does evin better increasing the yeald quite a bit. So if you can afford it a 250-275$ investment would make the differance as well a good 25$ grow book. Be "smart know your art!".

 

A 400 would only give ya 25 watts per sqft which is fine for veg but ya really need 35-50 for flower to allow a plant a chance at its potential.Get a quality light like sun systems as ya get what ya pay for.A cheap lite is exactly that.
