Default how many watts for a mh to veg 12 plants
ok i have been researching lights for the longest time and i know that i need a metal halide system but i do not know what wattage to go with they have 150-250-400 I'm using this for roughly 12 clones to go under and to veg them till there ready to flower. so which one would be most appropriate I am very low on cash so just give me an honest answer based on facts or previous knoledge, no need for the meat head grower sayin 1000 watt an that kinda shit thanks

I would go with a 400w, I have a 400w in a 42" parabolic hood. THe veg area is 4x4 and I have 20 plants in there, Some bigger than others, It is awesome. You can get the 400w MH real close (especially in parabolic) and keep the nodes short, then even when they stretch under the HPS you can get those colas. Go 400w, They are about thte same as a 250. If I were you I would buy a industrial bay light fixture 400w mH and then buy a parabolic hood where you can mount the bulb horizontally. You will be tits. Whats your flowering setup
