Which ballast runs these bulbs?
I asked this question in the which light post below this one but no body replied. So, I re-posted as my own thread.
So, just got my license in Colorado. Prices at the dispenseries are insane. I assume it's the same everywhere but here if you sign your rights over to a grower. They MIGHT give you a small discount. Like $4 off a $20 gram.
So, For years I've kept iguannas in a small room in my home. However after 17 years the two monsters are fading quickly. Time to convert the room to MMJ growing to save money. (Rooms already been glowing for YEARS).
I've decided on the e-bay Ebb and flow system with 12 buckets and a B.C. starter kit.
I've investigated lighting and have settled on (I think) duel arc (both MH and HPS in one bulb) on 1000w systems. Issue is, I can't seem to figure out which ballast runs these bulbs. Are they run by an HPS ballast or a MH ballast? I plan to run two of these in a 6'X10' room BTW.
Here is a link to see a bulb: Ushio Dual Arc Lamp (MH & HPS In One) - 117,000 lumens (1000 Watt)
I'm NOT promoting this specific site, it's just where I found this bulb.
It'll take me a few months to set anything up. However, with over 10 years maintaining Reef aquariums. This looks like it may be quite easy for me. Many of the test kits work the same, just different ranges. I'm only allowed three plants flowering and three growing. However I have many friends who plan to sign there rights over to me, to grow for them. Kinda like a co-op in that I won't sell 100% of there plants crop and issue them a minor credit as so many do.
Any info on this ballast issue would be great.
