Quick question - There is GOO in my HPS bulb!

[mistyganjatree]

i believe the GOO is flux from the soldering process of manufacture,
this can raise to the same heat as the lamp no probs so shouldnt be a prob, however it is a defect and the munfacturer should send you another if you supply them with photographic evidence, they know you aint gonna want to send it back, try them out , ya might end up with two buklbs for the price of one!

Maybe this is a newbie question, but is this normal. I dont remember, out of the "hundreds, if not thousands of posts I've read", anyone talking about this. I HAVE read about the fact that the company sometimes "test-fires" the bulb and that it might be brown or something on the inside when you receive it, but never heard about GOO. Any input would be great. Thanks. Check out my grow please. I need Rating: 5

Thanks, MistyGanjaTree. I will do that. I called them when I had the plastic-melting problem and they told me about the protective film thing. They seemed very helpful and nice. I will call them and email them a picture. Maybe they'll be cool.

Damn, I really love how my beautiful pepper plants look. I can't wait til they give my delicious, green peppers to eat. MMMMMmmm
