Quick question guys: which lights do you prefer? Im looking at a light for my first proper indoor grow. I was going to use LED, but got told some good info from from someone at one of the grow shops. He recomended THE HPS setup. Cause its tried and tested always gets good results, is is the best bang for buck. I was looking at an LED but only have max 4500 to spend and that's pushing my budget. So the led i found was small, and the guy selling the HPS SETUP made a good point that those wont have guarentee and will probably break, because its cheap. He does not sell cheap LEDS and and other reputable grow shops follow the same lead they only sell LEDS above 6K Then comes to the CMH light which is in the middle at 4500 which they say gets much better results because of the ligth range. Using a more white light than orange like the HPS. Which iv heard the hps works better for flowering, than growing. So your choice 1. HPS SETUP- R2000 with a warrenty thats with a ballast and its 600W 2. CMH setup R4450 globe alone is 1400 of that 4450 so if i break a globe its expensive unlike HPS WHICH IS LIKE 600 3. Cheap FULL spectrum Led with flower spectrum for R3000 and no warrenty https://www.somhydro.co.uk/blog/cdm-quality-over-hps-quantity. Good info on that site

Good day fellow 420sa members. I'd just like to find out if anyone has ordered from RapidLeds ? and used USPS Shipping (SUPER EXPENSIVE)? if so how long did it take to get here. And why are their prices so cheap compared to digikey? Also would fedex be a better option (I'll have to sell my kidney to afford fedex though...)
