electrical wiring lights

:rolleyes: the dilemma here i got 2 light ceiling cylinder fixture with mounting hardware included.. i intend to operate it using two forty watt bulbs by attachin this fixture to the tip of a trash can . :confused: . i can not figure out a way to wire the mug up to a socket in the wall . :( . first question is this even possible with the black and white whites (a pair for each light) -- i have yet to go back to the hemp depot although i do have a plug with no cord.. any help would be outstanding... chif out :o :D
btw [z] stop pimpin me i'd like2 makeup 4 th'other nite, liftban from chat asap!
:cool: :eek: ;)

im in the same boat as u man. i wana sort sum lights that way cuz my folks r buying me new wardrobe soon and sed i can have the old one. apparantly u can wire em up2plugs sumhow or so my dad tells me, i just dont have a clue how. also i need a more reliable way of adjustin hights of plants cuz im just using books etc at the moment and its dodgy

let me be blunt for a sec....gorwing isnt for kiddies with allowences ( I assume your a kid from your post, excuse me if your not). By the sound of it, it seems like you dont know a lot about growing so here somthing for yah :)


1.) Ok your going to find a growing space thats as big as a closet or the nearest available thing to you thats as big as a small closet. Go out any buy some floros light fixtures and bulbs (about 40 watt) and put it into your closet. setup your soil and sprout some plants. This wont really produce any good buds, but its a great learning expirence for new growers.....I think we have all grown the floro grow :) Once you get more knowledgable on growing you will learn how to grow like the pro's.

2.) Dont grow unless your serious about it.

If you look inside the fixture there should be and indecation of live and neutral .
In Britan live is Brown With Neutral bing Blue and a green n yellow earth , i don,t know what the colour codes for wiring are in the states but if you don,t know then don,t bother going any ferther get sombody who does.

I'll asume you do so Black is the live and white is the neutral with the earth screwed to the metal body anywhere as long as you have a good contact.

Oh and you can grow some nice bud with floes as long as you got enough wattage regardless off what anyone says to you. You need to be looking at 250-300w.
The ideal thing is an old sunbed that sombody is glad to get rid of , and all you have to do is replace all the tubes and your away for about £15.

Just use cool whites for the growing period and when they are a third of the size that you have room for start the flowering cycle mixing the cool whites 50/50 with warm whites

White = Hotwire
Black = Neutral
Green = Ground

i am wondering what the electrical requirements might be for a typical 1000 watt HID system?
