CMH is probably the best overall light you can use to grow cannabis other than the sun. Of course we would love to have a 400w+ CMH that runs on an digital ballast.
cmh is a good bulb i have a few opinions and other otions i would prefer, but yeah for single source lighting CMH is he shit.
 
MH bulbs have to cool down before they can re strike. Same thing would happen if you had an electric ballast.

Do some reading about what you're using.



Why are you turning it off and turning it back on anyways?
I was not turning off and on I came home this morning after running around taking care of stuff and when I came home and thought I would take a quick look at the ladies and there was no light but ballast was humming and I've never had this problem before so I asked Google and it took me here .so any way thank you you've been a great help smoke loudly Duce's.
