I'm new at this so I can't really give anyone any advice. I do however love my setup and the 400w lighting works great in my small closet. Not much heat as long as I have fans going 24/7, which is no big deal. They shut off sometimes when the temp drops way down but it was so hot this summer they stayed on most of the time. I use a XtraSun 6 Inch Reflector - Air Coolable, Xtrasun 400 Watt Halide/Sodium Convertible Ballast and a HiLUX GRO 400 Watt Super High Pressure Sodium Bulb, all for about $260. I have some buds the size of corn cobs from this setup. I'm looking forward to harvest next week. Happy growing everyone!!

I seen your album. Looks dank. If it's OK to ask, how many oz was it and was it from one plant?

I never weighed, but from the 3 jars, about 9 oz at least. Was quite tight for space as the plants were in veg for 4 weeks in mid summer (sunlight - so fairly vegged out) so lower bud site were not developing too well when i put them in my cupboard. these were fem seeds and a couple hermied, have cloned the non herms which was my second crop with the headband and kush (the football!) I was expecting double the crop. my new plants i have lst'd and cropped. will have a folder up soon

I officially own a 400 HPS system :D I spent 350 for the setup but it supposed to be top of the line for its price range. I got a 400 watt "Galaxy" ballast for 180, a cool tube for 100 buckts, and a bulb for 65.... i checked the prices on ebay and the setup i have is a little cheaper then what its listed for on ebay.

Anyways, im growing a 5 week old lowrider plant thats already flowering... it should be harvestable in about a month but hopefully less

Looks great man. Get a fan and some tubing to vent that light when you can, and your set !:)
