Was going to use a a 600W HPS however the light that comes with the kit is 600W Sunmaster Dual Spectrum Lamp. Will this be ok for my entire grow. Cheers. Evie x

ugh, i wish i knew more about the dual spectrum bulbs. i will say that if you find out its bad, just buy an HPS bulb for it, and supplement the white light with CFLs (MH if u wanna splurge). CFLs arent great to flower with, but are just fine for babys and vegging plants.

good luck pal!

Yes, dual spectrum bulbs are specifically designed for the entire plant cycle by emitting both red and blue spectrum.
