Are you flowering yet? Why ya crammin em up against the wall? Also you should get your ballast up off the floor.

Yes I saw it in the corner there. I meant a few feet up off the ground man. If your watering properly you should have quite a bit of run off coming out of your buckets, and you don't want that coming in contact with your ballast.

they look good. you could improve you lights efficiency by moving it away from the walls, but i know sometimes space is at a premium. a one k light will a 6 by 6 foot print pretty good.
keep us posted.

See your all high tech with the digital ballast.
But i have heard mixed opinion on digital ballasts and bulb life.
Something about the high HZ the digital ballast ballasts put
opposed to the standard 60 HZ a magnetic ballast puts off.
i stick with magnetic ballasts but im not knockin the digitals.
