Oh I see, I have blue spect on my 250 hps, I dont think it will be ideal because of heat on the seedling so i will certainly be using that little guide, cheers for the help m8, 2 more things , do i start the seedling on 18/6 cycle? or have i got this totally wrong? and Im struggling to find a perfect height for my bulb from the top of my babys, could you suggest? cheers for everything!jph there are 3 phases of grothe we speakin on
germ to seedling is the first phase it is 2 or 3 weeks best served wit flouresent tubes or cfl
seedling -veg cycle best served wt mh or cmh bulb (blue spect)

flower to chop best served wit hps light (red spec)
no any light will work for any stage but for the best results try suggested lights
Cheers mate this is brilliant!!, thanks alot!can even be 12/12 .. some do it .. tho I dont .. like some Veg time ... or might aswell grow autos..
I found the best way to start seedlings (for me) is uder my T5HO tubes (2x2700K and 4x6500K)
2-4 inches away from the tubes (tho fist week I start on 6 and move my way down)
and I run mine 20/4 (some even do 24/7) but I like to give boath my plants .. gear and power use a rest ..
at the hottest hour.. I run my light at night time ..
once in veg (and in my 3 gallon pots) I begin to turn it down to 18/6 a hour a day ..
and least week in Veg. (in 5 gallon pots) is with my 600W HPS cutting a hour a day untill I reach 12/12 ..
just how I do it ..
and yes blue spectrum (5000-6500K) work best for seedlings and in veg.. wile red/yellow (2000-3000K) is what you need for your buds
(like with autos) tho a plant use all light all grow .. just more blue in Veg and more red/yellow in flowering ..
