Some might screw in but, YOU NEED A SPACIFIC BALLAST TO RUN HID'S. So it wont work.

Only if you want to burn your house down.

You need something like these:

High Tech Garden Supply

Grow Lights

Definitely. Grow lights are the most expensive investment you will make for your grow room. And I think everyone here would agree that the one thing you shouldn't skimp on is lights. I would reccommend saving at most $200 for a decent lighting setup. I know HTG has a 400W HPS for $120 or something close to that.

$132 with shipping.

You are trying to replicate the sun, a better bulb will do so. I recomened the HPS with cooling fan built around it in the glass cylinder it is in. You do need a new ballast too.

I agree. I'm about to buy a 600W lamp and a cooling wing with tempered glass for $280.

It is great, no worries about heat. The plants can even get close to it and not burn.

CFLs and flouro tubes are great for veg, but you'll be disappointed with the mediocre amount of bud you'll end up with after flower.

Not to be rude but you really need to take some time to do some more reading. The https://www.rollitup.org/view.php?pg=faq is a great place to start.
