Metal Halide (MH) lamps typically emit a white colored light. Traditionally Metal Halide lamps have been used by indoor growers during the vegetative stage of plant growth. They are ideal for growing plants up to the flowering and fruit production stages because they mimic the spring/early summer seasonal sun.

Is metal halide better for veg?
MH grow lights (metal halide) are suited best for vegetative growth and HPS grow lights are superior for flowering.
How many lumens is a 450 watt metal halide?
50,000 lumens
With a high lumen output of 50,000 lumens , this 450-watt ED37 universal metal halide bulb is the standard in artificial lighting for commercial and industrial use. The ANSI MS450W/V/PS/740bulb has a cool white color temperature of 4000K and a mogul (E39) base.
What is the average light output from a 70 W metal halide?
As seen in the Relux output, the average light output is 545 lux when using a 70 W metal halide at a spacing of 2,5 m. Comparing 70 W metal halide with LED down lights
How far apart should 70 W metal halide fittings be?
70 W metal halide Fig. 2 shows a typical store with 70 W metal halide lamps spaced 2,5 m apart. This was also rendered in Relux (professional lighting design software) with a spacing of 2,5 m between the 70 W metal halide fittings.
What is the difference between 70W and 15-led?
Fig. 3 shows the adjacent light from the overlap of the fittings. As seen in Table 4 and Fig. 7, the 15-LED with a 30˚ spread spaced at 1,5 m is the closest comparison to the 70 W metal halide, spaced at 2,5 m.
What is the difference between 15-led and metal halide light fittings?
The graph shows that the 15-LED with a 30° lens can achieve the same intensity of light but the metal halide has a much wider spread of light. To achieve the same average of light in a room, the LED fittings will need to be spaced closer together to achieve the same average.
