Think I narrowed it down! Is virtual sun products any good? If so which should I get: Virtual sun 600 watt hps/mh w/ digital ballast for $199.99 or, Virtual sun 1000watt hps/mh w/ magnetic ballast for $239.99 These are the cheapest prices I've seen and I looked at htg supply and lashop.
if the price doesnt make a difference, go with the higher wattage, with higher wattage you can put more plants under the light and get a better crop. 600 watt = ~12 plants 1000 watt = ~19 plants
Im not too concerned right now with however many plants I can grow, tho more is better. I'm only allowed 5 or 6 plants by law right now. I just wanna have a good system. So is a magnetic ballast good?
go with the digital ballast, smaller and cooler, they also have a three kit package that looks pretty promising
