where did you find the 400?

according to growershouse, i can't use my solis tek ballast for the 600 blue MH for some reason. they recommend galaxy or horti ballast or magnetic even. wonder why??

Plantlightinghydroponics this time. They had the 400 for 79 I think.

600 mh is a conversion hps bulb only. So electronic ballast or mag hps. The 400 is a real metal halide.

And not all hps/ mh electronic ballasts are spec'ed equally.

WOW! that is a nice unit



I'll have to consider that with the cycloptics, then... you Can get their hood wich has only 2% light loss in a remote fixture, also...

btw, DO you use other lighting in your flower stage?

the mogul based bulb was part of a kit that i bought: bulb and ballast for $200. both Philips. if you go to the cycloptics website, they basically say hang it up permanently on your ceiling, make sure your walls are as reflective as possible and let the light do the rest.

you can get the reflector separate but it's almost $300 for it. for another 150, you get bulb and ballast too. so better deal.

i have a 2 ft T5 UVB bulb that i use in flower too. helps with the trichs/ more frost. will burn your eyes, skin and plants if not careful though.

the actual town was Paw Paw. always thought it to be a funny name. but got my first taste of Bell's brewing and some of their fantastic beers.

I drink those sometimes but not too much of a drinker myself. I have been here about 5 or 6 years. I met a local girl when I lived in the Colorado mountains. And just ended up here through cause and effect. But I ended up with a pretty cool little house in the woods to grow our meds. In a little country town like I have grown to prefer. Michigan has more negatives than most states I have been I am sad to say but out here is truly field and stream land. And miles of atv trails and dunes of course too.

I hit up a hydro shop there every once in a while when I'm up that way

there was an awesome soup and sandwich place not too far from the minute maid plant in paw paw that we used to hit for lunch almost every day. can't remember the name but it was packed every day. everything homemade.

I ran all my 315W CMH lights vertical, bare bulb. I still have almost a dozen fully assembled kits with fixture that I can't use anymore due to local regs. PM me if anyone wants more details or I'll put them on CL.

No, I was talking about mounting the CMH on the cieling, well, yes, vertical w/ a dome reflector, but I was talking about vertical T5's.
 
what is the setup you are looking to unload? I could be persuaded, possibly, but I really like that DE CMH I posted a couple back...
