I hope to be postin more in here and get my outdoor grow journal up as soon as I can get my hands on a camera, till then I got a quick question.
I have a small cab(computer tower) that it is ready to be made into a seedling cab until they are old enough to venture out on there own. I have 2 70w Ceramic Metal Halide bulbs that I would very much like to use to give my seedlings a good start and perhaps get a mother going so i can start pumping out clones. Few questions about the bulbs....
1. Whats the advantage of using a Ceramic Metal Halide instead of just a regualr Metal Halide bulb??
2. Does anyone have wiring schematics for a CMH ballast(pretty sure i just need an ignitor/capacitor/transformer)
3. Could someone tell me how to wire 2 bulbs to one ballast??
Im not a complete dunce in electrical wiring, my father was a electrical engineer so I know the basics.
Your input is greatly appreciated!!:thumbsup: :thumbsup:
