HPS Vs Metal Hallide

I'm sure this has been answered many times, but what are the differences between these two, I just picked up a 400W HPS bulb because I hear they are the best for bud, but why?!

Is there a use for Metal Hallide, such as can it be used in conjunction with HPS to provide even better results?


Also, I was wondering if this was a good bloomer, I've heard some pretty good reviews, but I'd like to know if any of you have tried it before. It's called Miracle Grow Bloom Booster, here is a link to it.
Ace - Ace Tree: Lawn & Garden: Plant & Lawn Care: Plant & Tree Food: Plant Food - Small Package: Miracle-Gro® Bloom Booster (100178)
It's a blue crystally powder that dissolves instantly in water.

The HPS light is best for flowering and the MH is best for vegging - I use both in my flowering room for the best spectrum of light during budding.

Also, I like Kool Bloom from General Hydroponics and I tend to stay away from Miracle Gro for my weed - but it's great for household and outside non-pot gardening.

iv used it and its a good fert, makes a big differnce, its cheap and u can find it at homedepot,my problem is its not organic, so if u do use it, just make sure u flush the hell out of your plants for a good two weeks before u harvest, and i dont see a problem in using it, use the ''lil''spoon size that comes inside,put two of those to every gallon every other watering,
