you guys still here?
what up.So im starting my summer beans this month i'm only going to run 400 watts for the light. I want it to be as efficient as possible.
i am planing on using the dual HPS/MH combo bulb
and running it in a ballast a 1000 watt ballast set to 400. IS there any problem with what i am saying?
thank you for your time.

From what I've read dimming the bulb puts more stress on it.

Also those bulbs suck. Everything on one side gets MH and everything on the other gets HPS.

Get a coated bulb these give a light that is half MH and HPS spectrum for every plant.



Or you can get one of each bulb and use one of these
