okay i just finished setting up my grow space, i cannot hang the light till i get the hanger inafew dayz, everything was fine till i moved the light n it had a hard knock, then it went off, but 5mins later i put it on and it worked! then 5 mins after it went off!

Do i need to buy anew light bulb? im using hps 250watt - i have a 600w but cant use it yet, my babbies are only 10days old! or can i?

just tried it again - it came on for about 30secs then went off - the ballast was making a funny noise?

will i be okay to use the 600watt bulb :-| take into account they are tiny plants, 2weeks since i germinated them today!

yeah an extraction/filtration system with the carbon filter to take away the hot air, then blow in air with a fan from the bottom!

do you use one i know some ppl dont
i have 2 400hps but i dont use one. but my room is a tornado all day so i dont need one. it just depends on your space
