Can someone Identify, Will it work, can I modify the cord??
Hello, Im new to the board and im new to hydro growing aswell.. Im starting my first grow here really soon. My seeds will need placement quick as they are almost ready.. Ill be using a few DWC setups and GH 3part system.
Ive already collected some CFLs for the operation but have read CFLs are not the greatest.. So ive been researching an looking for a good deal on a HID setup with not much luck.. To expensive it seems for a first timer like myself..
Then I came accros this light setup that is no longer being used at work.. It was a light used to light up the American flag 25ft up a year or so ago.
So the question is...
Can someone tell my what kind of light it is? If it will work to grow plants? Would it have the right spectrum or colors of light needed to get through all stages of growth? Veg - flowering/budding?
Will I be able to modifiy the cord from the three prong funny shaped thing to a standed plug with ground?
I have got this for FREE and am hoping it is usefull..
It almost looks like the same style of bulb I see with these "HID" setups.. Please ANY and all info is really helpful..
Thank you for reading..
