im debating between the sunmaster 600w MH cool deluxe conversion and the sunpulse 600w MH 6.4k. the sunpulse is supposedly the only bulb actually designed specifically for eballasts(ive got a 600w lumatek)but i cant find alot of info about them.Ive got lots of info about the sunmater(spectral...

I was wondering if any one has had experience topping these strains and/or how they respond to topping?

THX hotwired i wasent sure if it was worth it to get the 600w mh conversion but I will now .HPS is a more efficient light lumens wise but the spectrum it provides(even with blue spectrum added)is not as effective during VEG. Any thoughts on the brand I should use? was looking into the Sunmaster...

its a multiwattage lumatek with 320 400 600 and super lummens setting

ive done my reaserch it seems its between hortilux super hps and Hi-LuxGro opti red. Hortilux has 88,000 lumens Hilux has 90,000 lumens.lots of people say Hortilux but does anyone have experience with the Hilux?Any advice encouraged!!

then what is the most efficient

I plan on using a 600w MH conversion bulb for vegg and then switching to HPS for flower.Im looking for a balance of yield and potency so i belive a cool HPS is what i need.Any suggestions?????

In your experiences whats the best hps bulb? ex.Hortilux, Sunmaster, Hiluxgro,Agromax?

the hilux and Sunmaster hps bulbs claim to have 90,000 lumens where as the Hortilux only has 88,000. I just want to know which brand has the best blue spectrum to maintain tight plants during flowering.

I plan on using a sunmaster 600w MH conversion bulb for vegg but not sure what brand HPS to use for flowering . I know they emit a red/orange light but I want to maintain the best blue spectrum possible. Which brand has the best blue spectrum?

Which has a better spectrum for flowering?

What i want to know is it worth running a MH for veg and HPS for flower or just HPS for the entire grow?is there any noticeable difference between a plant that was vegged under MH? ie plant health, node length,bud sites,bushyness,height?pics appreciated

or should i just get a regular 400w MH and adjust the wattage on my ballast? Was leaning toward the 600w conversion for lumen output but was questioning the operation of it in my digital ballast.

does any one no if a 600w MH conversion bulb will operate smoothly in my lumatek dimmable lk600 ballast? (thought conversion bulbs were designed for mag ballasts)
