Is there an all in one light (veg-flower) and if not what are the best options in 2019 going into 2020? With such a wide and vast market it can seem somewhat overwhelming to find the "Perfect Fit" especially for noobs! I'm asking Master Cults what there opinions, facts ,and knowledge is surrounding the subject so sit tight folks it's going to be an active thread.

All in one light, I'd say a digital ballast most come with both mh and hps bulbs. NH for veg and hps for flowering. Or you could just use the hps for all phases. Some folks prefer using cmh so there is a few options.

Very interesting what would be the best for say 8 plants? Out of these options? of course yield would be a factor but not as much as trich production and and just overall potency if these are a factor light even controls I'm here to learn! We're going for today's top shelf with that being said what would you as a master cult say is best?

Just got back in the game a week or so ago after a 5 year lay-off. I spent 3 days researching before finally pulling the trigger on this LED. For the price/quality you can't beat it, or if you can I haven't found it. It uses quality components (Samsung Diodes/Mean Well drivers), has a 3 year warranty and can be used from veg all the way through flower. This thing is crazy bright, brighter than any of my HID lights and doesn't put out a quarter of the heat.

No no no! We're not growing outdoors we're looking for indoor quality craft bud.

The sf 1000 is the same thing I posted above, just one panel instead of four. It's a nice light but won't cover much area. What size is your grow tent?

The title of your thread says you wanted an all in one.
You can use about anything for veg, cant answer your question without knowing your growing space. I know nothing about the lights you linked to, never used them. If you're only going to use the sf 4000 for flower I'd just get a metal halide setup for veg.

I only use a "grow" light if I'm dealing with a super short indica variety that doesn't stretch. Otherwise I get plenty of growth from my Gavita.

As I've become more knowledgeable and better at growing I've learned gavita is an excellent choice while I still have an amazing cultivation journey with my hlg 550r spec I've learned I have overpaid but it was completely worth every penny!
