Help please

I have a 150w hps bulb with a wing reflector will it work without using a ballast and how far should I keep it from my plants I'm replacing my 250w cfl bulb from apollo horticulture

Don't think it will work...

Edit. In fact I'm sure it won't work, trying could be dangerous.

Get a ballast and the light should be no further than 10"

Is the ballast not inside the reflector unit?Often the case with low wattage lamps. HID lights REQUIRE a starting ballast.
