Hmmm they don't even tell the spectrum and the lumen Guess you just don't wanna buy HPS, ballast, ventilator and carbon filter, hum?

A small watt HPS would do you a whole lot better. Even a little 100 watt or 250 watt.

I ordered the same one and am using it to veg a second time. It works suprisingly well. I use it to veg 4 at a time, small bubblers in a small cabinet. Growth rates in veg seem good n fast. Good luck

I like it, but for the money I'd want a metal halide blue spectrum bulb. If I only had a HPS ballast, I'd want a conversion bulb solely for the blue spectrum.

Meh, I run HPS all the way through. No real need to switch back and forth, they're gonna stretch when ya flip the lights to 12/12 anyways.
