interesting

Well I have 400watts of hps light so im really not worried about having a problem flowering. I need some more flouro light so my plants can veg well. I heard the flouros help the stems get strong and some other stuff. I only have a stinkin 20watt flouro in my room along with the hps lights. If i did have a couple of those work lights in my room would there really be any need for the hps lights at this point.. I'm just thinking about power issues. I do notice quite a lot of growth using the hps lamps but would having both flouro and hps on at the same time really improve growth at all? The hps lights seems to produce a lot of heat and at this stage i don't think they should be exposed to a lot high temps. This ties in with having seperate rooms for different stages in growth.. I have seen people only use flouros up to a certain point and then of course bring them into the flowering room where the hps lamps are. Is that better than having hps and flouro on at same time?
