    1)how many plants can i try to grow in a wardrobe with a hps 150w?

    my wardrobe is height 140cm (55 inches) x 80cm (31 inches) x 100 cm (40 inches).

    i was thinking about 5-6 plants...are they too many?:smoking:

    2)which seeds would u suggest to buy?i thought about some seeds that dont grow to much high and dont expand to much to the sides part.

    3)do u think this Electronic SONLIGHT Ballasts and HID HPS MH HQI lamps (go to the link) really helps a lot?


    thanks!!!:hello:

    That lamp is good for 1-2 plants.

    Auto flowering strains would go well with 150 watts.
    Most don't get taller than 2 feet.
    A strain like Lowryder 2 would be a good choice.

    You don't reall have to go with auto'. You could get a nice indica too.
    like Night Shade.

    You ask if that light would help "a lot" -- meaning what? Compared to some other 150w HPS? Compared to some other lighting? Compared to no light at all?

    If you want a 150w HPS then that should be fine.

    You could get a great deal on a 250w HPS at HTGSupply-dot-com. Many in this community buy from them.

    yo man, i use a 150 watt hps and keep 2 plants in production all times, usually grow the shortryder its quick yeilding auto flower and gets bout 2 - 3 feet. good for indoor qucik satisfaction. But there are plenty of low growing strains to choose from, also you can pick up some clamp lights throw some cfls in them fo cheap add a lil extra boost to the 150.

    is the auto flowering good to smoke as well?

    I like it, theres some killer auto strains out there. Its just easier to work with in my opinion leave it under 24hr lights and 3 months harvest time.

    Do auto flowering strains generally grow bigger/faster since they get a continous light?

    Sorry to for the off topic question.

    yea they grow fast but generally autoflowering plants dont get that tall, usually range of 2-5ft
