Light for veg room for autoflowers

Discussion in 'Growing Marijuana Indoors' started by Khazad, Dec 26, 2016.

  1. Hey guys I am starting to plan out my outdoor grow and this year I decided to get autoflowers because I live very far north and I would like to give them the very best head start and sprout and veg them indoors under light.

    I will be vegging 6 plants in 3-ish gallon pots(12 liters) or 1.5 gallon (6 liter) because last year my 3 gallon pots did not even get close to be filled out with roots.

    250w CFL
    240w or 400w MH or HPS*

    *should I get MH when autos have very short veg cycle??? HPS are good enough and can build bud so its better investment for the future.

    benefits of CFL - enery costs, easy-ish setup
    cons of CFL - not powerfull enough for optiamal start?

    benefits of MH/HPS - optimal start, could pay itself as an investment long term
    cons of MH/HPS - energy costs

    Energy costs are not really a problem but its still good to be lower.
