"This complete system has the ballast housing connected to the reflector for a simple and efficient setup with no floor space needed."
Straight from the item description. Key word would be complete system. Sounds good to me.
 
HTG is totally legit. I would however recommend upgrading your reflector. I have been to the htg store in florida and seen it in person. For your grow space you would def want to look into an enclosed reflector that is easily air cooled. HTG offers their cooltube for 85$. But I personally like their Euro reflector the wings that come with the cooltube feel flimsy. Its up to you.

did u just get the 'bare bones' recflector, and hps only ballast. tiss tiss. u should have gotten a switchable so u can run mh in veg. although u can surley run hps all the way thro veg to flower, youll learn with experience that mh is the ticket for veg. cant say enough bout it

Good Luck in the pursuit of growing cannabiz....... only reason i mentioned it is cause most newer growers do overlook the benifits of the mh in veg, or vegging until pre flowers..but once u run a large MH in a seperate room than ur hps flower room, you will def be sold. I do believe on a smaller scale you'll be just fine the route youve gone.. TM:mrgreen::mrgreen:
