Hortiking Metal Halide Lamp – 400W & 600W (Veg Stage)
Used by the old school and trusted by the pros, the Hortiking Metal Halide is the go-to lamp for tight, compact, leafy growth during the vegetative stage. If you want to reduce plant stretch and build short, dense plants ready for heavy flowering—this is the bulb for you.
This is the one that looks like a blown-up condom (in case you were wondering). But don’t be fooled by its shape—this lamp delivers serious blue-spectrum light that keeps internodes tight, leaves lush, and stems sturdy. Perfect for early growth, mother plants, or bridging the gap between seedlings and flower.

- Reduces stretch – ideal for compact plants before bloom.
- Reliable performance – stable colour temperature and lumen output.
