i am curently using a 250w hps for veg and flower, but wanted something better for veg but i know i cant use a mh bulb with my hps ballast,
but ive seen a 200w blue spectrum cfl on ebay and it has the same e40 fitting and wondering if i could use this through the ballast or would i need to get a another reflector with fitting which gos straight to a plug?

i just want to get more blue spectrum in there ive also seen the small led grow lights that are blue and wondering if any one has eva used the LEDs to growor as part of a grow.

any other ways that i could get blue spectrum in there would be great if any ones knows of any?

thanks in advance

Read that discription, it sould say built in ballast or self ballast. If so it can be used in a standard E40 socket wired up to a 240v uk plug.

Keep the hps going just add some blue, Cfl will not compair to hps at all.

yes it is a self ballast thanks for that,
so if i just get a blue spectrum cfl a wire it up and put it in my grow box with the hps?
i was going to get the 200w cfl because of its high power but could i just get a lower watt one and put it in there bcos im keeping the hps as well?

the problem i have is, i see on here everyone saying go to lowes or walmart but being from uk we dont have these places and ive looked in our diy and all purpose stores but cant find these blue spec cfls
anyone from uk know where i can get these?
