He did say T12. I'm saying that the T8's are better for growing. More light and more efficient.

And YES. Overdriving is the SHIZ!!! You can veg for twice as long under them. See the difference?

Notice the overdriven light has 2 ballasts.

My flowering light is only 400W so vegging under a HID would be a big waste of power. OD shoplights for vegging is where it's at. I use 2 of them and they make more than enough plant to fill the underneath of my 400. This is last week. I'll have new pics today.

I agree with you Buddy. If I was flowering under a 1000W then I would want to use a 400W for veg. The OD shoplights work great for vegging for a 400W. I want to see pic of your setup.

These were grown under 2 OD shoplights. Topped twice and exactly six weeks old. I can't even find enough room for them under the 400W HPS.
