So I got one of these GrowBright 600 watt HPS High Output Horticultural bulb with my 600W digital from HTG about 3 weeks ago. Turned it on this morning, all's well. Then, a couple hours later I notice my grows dark.
Upon inspection, I find the bulbs blown. There's some flaked, powdery stuff loose inside, I can see a loose filament floppin' around and the rod along the bottom of the tubes length has warped and cracked the actual glass tube enclosing the works.
Does this sound like a typical hps bulb blow, or am I looking at deeper issues?
I mean, this bulb had about 2 weeks use. Sure am glad I know fluros well. This is my virgin hps bud grow.
I am awaiting word from Tony @HTG
