    Default Using a 400W MH?

    I'm about to get a 400watt MH light...it's free from a friend so I'm not complaining at all. But my quesiton is...will a 400watt MH be sufficient to grow 5 or 10 plants? I kind of want to set up a dwc system but for my first grow I might just go with organic.

    I was told you want to use a HPS for flowering but I was also told this light is fine for the whole grow.

    u can actually use a mh all the way through,or hps all the way through, or split em mh for veg hps for flower, or if your made of cash both of them through both stages, optimum results with out breaking the bank are to split em up tho

    sounds dannnk...ive got a few seeds from a buddies grow last year. I still havent figured out what kind of bud it is, but it looked and sort of smelt like a diesel, but had a strong strawberry scent...so i think i'm going to start with those once i move into my new townhouse
