Can I get a Link to a good start to finish light around 200-300? Please I appriciate your input dd
I would at least go to a 400W. It wouldn't be too much for your 3 plants. We bought a whole set up with a 1000W convertible ballast with both the MH and HPS for about $250. Definitely got that back in our first round of smoke. It's an investment at first, but each one after wont be anywhere near as expensive.
Best of luck!
