Do you need help identifying a 🌶?
Is your plant suffering from an unknown issue? 🤧
Then ask in Identification and Diagnosis.

Good growing.
That Lemon Drop has an impressive dense jungle of pods, buds and flowers.

Yeah I can't wait to get some of my plants in hydro. I would have already, but I didn't want them outgrow the room so I held off.
Do you have spectral distribution charts for either of those 2 bulbs?? I'm using a 1000 Eye Hortilux "Blue" bulb for my plants. Only has 80k lumens, but the spectral chart compared to other bulbs I've looked at is usually 4-5 times more light although 2-3 times more in cost.

I can't find the distribution chart, but here is the website for the growbright one, I can't find much on the agrosun except that the potheads love it
. I've had one of the hortilux 1000W HPS bulbs and it was badass. 145,000 lumens.....gave the sun penis envy.I got my 400W system from www.HTGsupply.com They are moving right now so their online store is down, but when they're back up I'll see if I can tell which of the two bulbs I ordered.
The 400W growbright one is supposed to put out 55k lumens as opposed to 50k like most 400W lights. From what I've seen 430W lights usually put out 55k so if the bulb really is that bright its like getting 30W free.
Glad to see your hydro plants are finally doin what they're supposed to. I been having similar problems with my plants in a DWC. Ridiculous vegetative growth, no buds. I followed suit and just cleaned and filled the reservoir with pH'd tap with half strength micro. Hopefully i'll be in the same place you're in soon.

Ok I think I did do the research on the agrosun one, but even after calling the company and asking for specific details they couldn't provide any real numbers on how much of each spectrum the bulb actually puts out. Not sure why they couldn't provide any info, but I decided to go with eye because I knew exactly what the bulb was putting out. I do loose some lumens, but the PAR light that the bulb puts out is far beyond of the other bulbs I looked at.

LGHT, you'll be very happy with your Hortilux bulb. That 1kW one I was talking about is almost 3 years old and still going strong. If my friend didn't live so far away I'd take a pic of his setup, he's got a cool tube just like mine but actually has it set up for air cooling. That bulb has served him well over the years.
