First attempt growing so far just started off a bit shits and giggles sorta thing, 2 mates gave me seeds, 4 northern lights and a bag of 30 lemon haze, germinated 20 LH and 4 NL, using nothing more than strung up assorted lamps and other e27 and t2 fittings i rigged up.
Bulbs ranging from mostly..
18w 6000k LEDs at 2000 Lumens
And 23w 2700k CFLs.
05/05/18 NL seeds sprouted.
18/05/18 LH seeds sprouted.
Potted in a soil/coir/perlite mix.
Nutes: PowerFeed, Seasol, MiracleGro and sulphate of potash.
4 NL & 16 LH Vegged until 25/07/18.
With lighting gradually being increased (more LEDs, bulbs upgraded)
Currently im in my second week of flowering 12/08/18, All sexed.
First grow ever i have ended up with 13/20 females, 3 of which went Hermie.

Currently:
2 female NL.
8 female LH.

Under hehehe...
15x 18w LEDs@6000k e27 fitting
8x 23w CFLs@2700k t2 fitting

Flushing water only for 1 more water then going to a higher K nute.

sounds like you need a proper hps ballast and hanger with an aus plug. they exist on ebay pretty cheap
