A Lesson In Lamps: Hanging Heights
This is the first article of a two-part series that aims to take a closer look at lamps, considering aspects such as design specifications, maximum achievable coverage of light and tips for usage. Right now though the focus starts with recommended hanging heights of High Intensity Discharge lamps (think SOLAAR, Grolux, Sodium Lamps, Metal Halide Lamps, etc) and Fluorescent Lamps (e.g T5HO Sunblasters and Eco-Lights). Hopefully this should prove to be of use, as it is something that you need to consider throughout an entire crop!
