Wait longer than three minutes bud! They take a while to get up on the go.

The bulbs I got when I ordered my ballast were JUNK man, I had them send me 2 new ones and those were JUNK to lol I ended up going to Lowes and bought some Sylvina's for $42 each. So far got 5 months out of them, but I always buy new bulbs ever 6 months because they do loose spectrum.
