nice to see someone using actinics im going to use them on my new grow.
i have some from my reeftank that i no longer use.
and on to my new grow yep double 0 going micro......
i do have a few ?'s for the pro's, what i have is 2 175MH's now i know i can get 150w hps conversions bulb's and there up there in the price. sometime ago a friend of mine had a 175mv pulse start and just bought a 150 hps bulb and it worked fine.
i know when working with a 1k 600's and 400's you can have a "switchable ballast" the way that works is by using a hps transformer ( 1100 watts) for a 1k...... a mh ballast 1k is 1070watts it would run to hot and end up blowing after time.... all the "switch" dose is cut or connect the x-3 wire on the iggy
now my ?
being that i have a 175mh (210watts) and a 150hps (190watts) would i beable to put in a iggy and run a hps bulb? i dont see where it will be a prob. but wanted some advice first....... i would much rather run hps as to the mh
also what size room should i build for 2 150/175w lights i was thanking 2 x 4 ? i really have no limits, but i dont want a huge space that the light is not going to be useful. btw im going to put the 2 ballast on a flip flop and run 4 lights 2 rooms
