HELP! Lighting thoughts

[Boo'sBloomz]

I decided to start a perpetual grow
I have in my flower a 600w apollo hps
I can't decide what I want for veg I have already another 600 w hps
And
A galaxy hydro 600w led
I would like opinions on what would be better for the plants between the two heats not any concern and I'm trying to keep the electric lower on veg so I was gonna dim my ballast to 75 or 50 percent efficiency

Yes I know mh for veg but I've always liked how the plant grows on a continuous hps schedule

I'd run the HPS lights for both. Hard to beat the light output.

Even with the color spectrum and them being about the same wattage

Got to have some blue in them bulbs,for veg. My .02$

I use a Solis Tek 400 watt MH lamp rated at 10K for veg. Then I switch to a 600 watt Solis Tek HPS bulb for flowering. I have lots of blue!! (And a $60.00 savings each grow in electricity use!) Some day, even I will know sump tin.

Honestly, I feel that if you can ventilate the thermal load then using a MH/HPS lamp is the lowest cost option. As DKN said, growing results are quite good.

I found these led light strips on amazon. including double sided tape and two controllers I was able to wrap my hps and 2 t5s with them for about 50 bucks it gives a more complete spectrum(I hope)
