*Banging head against wall*

Hey guys,
Well I'm getting prepared for my next grow this week. The last lady comes down at the end of this week I decided.
For this grow, I would like to try and do 12/12 from seed.
Here's my dilemma: my grow shop was having a sale, and I couldn't restrain myself from buying a 400W MH conversion bulb, only to realize today that I guess I really don't need it if I'm going to do 12/12 from seed.
Is there any benefit to using MH bulbs for the initial weeks of flowering? Or would it be best to simply use HPS all the way through?
Thanks guys.

You did 12/12 from seed with just HPS right?
There is a grow log on ICC where a guy had like an ounce per plant, and he was fricken using CFLs! I guess CFLs emit more of a blue spectrum light than red spectrum though, so I guess that could be the reason.

Harry_Ba11sach said: Yeah I saw that link you posted. It kind of blew my mind a little bit.... I've done 12/12 from seed with both HPS and cfl's and I've never yielded more than about 4g/plant.
Here was my best plant from seed
Really? Fuck... maybe that guy had some good genetics goin.
4g per plant?
Hrmmm.... the fact that you Harry........ as well as lampshade have had such bad experiences with 12/12 from seed is making me rethink this shit.
I suppose the benefit of MH is getting the veg time cut a bit and I guess if you run it for the initial weeks of flowering, like you said harry, it may reduce some of the stretch.
With that said, I think I'm gonna scrap the 12/12 from seed idea - at least until I have a more plentiful stock that could see me through 2 grows.
At least I'm not pissed off anymore about buying the bulb.
