I am running nine Lumatek 600 watt ballasts with HydroFarm hoods and regardless of public perception, these things are rock solid. Silent with minimal heat. The only issue I've had is prematruely blowing bulbs while switched in the "Super Lumens" mode, which could, and I am not totally sure, be...

I'm using the Advanced line of Sensi A and B and Connoisseur A and B and have excellent results with them. The feeding levels on the Connoisseur is right on for vegged plants but with the Sensi, start out at quarter strength. And try to keep you pH right on at 5.6. Good Luck
