Ok i have ben researching lighting. MH will gve your plant that short bulkyness it needs and the hps will help the plant be a prolific fruiter. Now my question to you is can i just use a LED light instead of ballast system and still get same if not better results. And if so are there any web pages that anyone knows that sell the LED for a cheap price. thnks

LED lights will not produce better results, but worse. Also they are very expensive. HID lights are cheaper and will produce better results. The link I posted in my previous post has digital ballasts on sale. They can take a MH bulb or a HPS bulb on the same ballast. I hope this helps.
