By a strange coincidence, I made my choice and my setup just came today!

I got some great input. I decided to get a MH grow light system. Cost a little bit more, but when I stated breaking things down, it actually wasn't that much more expensive than an LED setup or a T5. Electricity bill will be a bit higher, but I can live with it. The combination of light plus added heat which I will need in the winter here in Ohio made my decision for me.

I was trying to hang it today, looks like I'm having some difficulty with hanging the fixture, getting the hooks properly in it. But I tested it and it is working fine. Still have a couple weeks before I'll need to bring the tree in, so I'm sure I'll have that problem licked by then.

If anyone is interested, this is the fixture I bought. Cheaper by far than other MH systems, and for my one tree, maybe a second later, 400 watts appears to be fine.

Thanks all, for the input. It has been helpful.
