Budget lighting

[Weedguru Higher]

This is all important because the light intensity will directly affect the quality and yield of your crop. If you have less than optimal lighting your yield and potency will be reduced and buds will not develop as dense. This point can not be stressed enough. You must have the right amount of light for your space to grow high quality bud. The question is often asked, "can I have too MUCH light?". The basic answer is no. According to the law of diminishing returns, you could theoretically reach a point when your plants just couldn't absorb any more light but it would be impossible to have that many lights in your space. Heat from the lights would become a problem long before you ever reached that point. So use as many lights as you want, just control the heat.

Econolight carries a cheap 150watt HPS for 30 something dollarsthat can be easily converted to a remote ballast. I bought one a few months ago, the only complaint I have is the broken replacement bulb(I ordered 2) that they sent me.
