I'm looking for an end all solution to my veg area, trying to steer away from a MH, but i still may get an MH. Anyhow, i've been looking on ebay, and around, and i cannot seem to find decent priced 125watt envirolites in the UNITED STATES. Anyone know somewhere in the us (a website, anything) that sells these bulbs/fixtures, and doesnt charge an arm and a leg. (if its the same price i can get a MH for.. im getting a mh.. of course.). Plenty on ebay in the UK but their shipping is always rediculous. I dont want to spend half as much on shipping as i do for the item, im sure you agree. man i remeber years ago shipping didnt cost like it does now, it's insane. even in the us alone.

I wouldnt bother with envirolites.....a ripoff in my opinion....I would go to walmart and get three 2-packs of 26w daylight cfls.....Get three y-sockets so your fixtures go twice as far. Now you have just purchased 150w of pure 6500k for 25$ and you can cover more surface area........but thats just me

they also have 42 watters at walmart

Thats right.....but they are 2700k......He wants lights for vegging. Not saying you cant have warm white bulbs for vegging....but I have seen a significant diff. when using the 6500's

I use softwhite 42 watters now. I'm sick of adjusting. i'd rather have a little less coverage then have to tweak the damn lights everyday.

and i have been unable to find a y socket anywhere at my home depots.

already thought of those options

What's 'decent priced' for you? One of the few places I've found that sells them in the US is here: Fluorescent Grow Lights= $68 for a 150 W cfl
