i veg under a pair of 48" 4 tube 6400K T5HO fixtures with some 28w CFL's for peripheral lighting as needed.

for flowering i run a 1000w HPS with 3 70W HPS fixtures i hang for peripheral lighting as needed.

i'm planning on changing my lighting pretty soon here once i start seeing the savings of not buying top shelf meds every week. i'll add a second 1000w HPS for flowering and replace the T5's with a 600w MH so i'd be running 3 HID's on digital ballasts with some T5's for backups/peripherals.

250 w mh for veg & 150 hps & 250 hps side by side and a bunch of cfl's for side lighting. I'm switching to a 400 w hps & cfl's for sidelighting my next grow.

quantum 600 dimmable ballast. you can run it at 300w, 450w, or 600w. I couldnt find many reviews on it before I bought so I was kinda hesitant but so far I couldnt be happier with it. it works great.
