I found the forum I read. Mutiple people discuss removing the reflector from the cool tube.....The link below
Where Can I purchase a vertical cooltube?
Ahh, I see now.
So now back to the original question, the link I posted of the cool tube kit, will that ballast work with a MH bulb?Quote:

Most MH bulbs will not fit a cooltube designed for HPS. Check your diameter of your tube vs diameter of your bulb.Quote:

Another thing, I'm going to start the whole grow from start to finish in 4.75 gallon pots. I don't want to bother with the transplant causing stress for the plants. My question now is, I'm going to use 75% Fox Farm Ocean Forest soil & 25% Fox Farm Perlite....with the seedlings being in 4.75 gallon pots how long can I let the plants feed on the nutes in the soil itself for before having to start feeding them myself?
About the walls being reflective, I'm interested in the Kool Seal Elastomeric Roof Paint. I heard it's 90%+ reflective and its dries in some sort of water proof sheet of rubber type material. Any suggestions on that? I'm still trying to figure out if it will stick on wood.
