Day 27 of flowering under MH. Should I still switch to HPS?

I am on day 27 of flowering, and my plants are still under a 400W MH. I heard that the buds may turn out more stretched out under the MH, but they're looking like once they fully fill out, they could be okay. Would it be worth it to invest in the HPS still, or should I just concentrate on the bigger and better LED setup that is soon to come and let these guys just do their thing for another month?

Get an hps preferrable 600 watt hps, or more as soon as possible!

1k is what i run and wouldn't flower with anything less.

And if you want yield, do not mess with Led.. You'll thank me later.


Good luck buddy

I agree, go with HPS, ditch LED (never heard of an LED that worked good for flowering)
If you don't want to pay too much for more equipment, you might be able to get a conversion bulb (an HPS that would run in a MH ballast)

Okay so with a tight budget in mind, this should work for me, correct?
