LED vs MH & HPS lights!!!!!!!!!!!!

[1sttimer]

What should I go with? With all the new technology out these days its hard to keep up! I am curious to know what's the best (LED or MH/HPS lights)? I'm even curious about the spinning lights that are out now. What works these days? Who knows? Who can tell me? Who can heeeelllllllpppppppppp? PLEASE somebody inform me?

I'm going to keep this short and simple. If your growing marijuana MH and HPS will way outperform LED. Do a search on LED's, there have been plenty of threads already written. Being that you asked this question I have to assume you are fairly new to growing, so LED's are definitely out of your experience level. Buy a HPS and you'll be extremely happy.

There is nothing on the market right now that can compare with the output the HPS and MH produce. IMHO HPS is the way to go, eye hortilux bulbs or any other bulb with added blue spectrum so you can use it all the way from start to finish.

HPS man... everything else is second rate.

Faced with the same dilema not too long ago, I went with a 400 watt system with a switchable ballast. LEDs have improved some in the interim and will doubtless continue to do so, but my understanding is that they're still not quite ready for prime time.
