If you’re considering growing cannabis indoors, you’ll need to equip your grow space with grow lights. There are a lot of choices when it comes to choosing the right grow light for your home environment, so we’ve put together a guide on how to set up your grow light.
First, you’ll need to choose the type of CMH grow light you’re going to use. You have three options: HID (high-intensity discharge), LED, or fluorescent. HID lights are the most expensive, but they produce the highest levels of light output.
LED lights are more affordable and produce similar levels of light as HID lights, but they last longer and do not require a ballast. Fluorescent lights are the cheapest option and they produce low levels of light, but they are efficient and last a long time.
Once you have chosen the type of grow light you will be using, you will need to choose the size of your fixture. You can purchase fixtures that range in size from small tabletop lamps to large hanging fixtures.
Once you have determined the size of your fixture, you will need to decide if you need to make any modifications to the fixture. If you want a lamp with a hood, then make sure that it has a hood.
You can buy replacement parts for your grow lights or you can simply remove the hood from the lamp. You may also need to add additional parts such as ballasts or reflectors if you are using different types of grow lights in your setup.
