Again Lex, great imfo. I've grown since '69! When people called me crazy! When it wasn't "cool". LOL I watch you to check myself, and so far we are on the same page
my 1st indoor grow was a 250 mh magnetic... I used a Sun Master Warm Deluxe... now (15 years later) I'm essentially a master grower! And yes I do prefer a 600 mh/hps electronic over a 1000 Digital... cool tubes with a 400-600 I find give off a better lux to heat ratio! I like to keep my canopy, with a 400 hps (for flower) within a 3 foot range of the bulb/reflector... and aprox the same with a 600 but with a higher lux per square foot...there is way too much to go on with this subject (especially when you compare an Eye Hortilux bulb to a run of the mill conversion). In the end I would sudjest a Quantum ballast, Electronic (digital if you want to pay the high $ for an eye Hortilux bulb)... something electronic with a dimmer that fires both mh/hps... grab a lux meter off amazon for 40 dollars and test your bulbs every other week... indoor growing should be fun (not always easy for sure) but either do it or don't... go in confident and do your research. Remember to be patient aswell, there's always next season
what about lec?? can you get into the 3100k and 4something k , aren't the colors real close for veg to bloom stage ? is hps good to add ?? and the effects if any with the hps , sorry about the dumb question but I'm totally a newb 😶
Mr Lex I'm a new owner of a SPL 400w mh dimable 50% 75% 100% grow light kit. Running a 400 at lower watts is less efficient. Can I use a 315w bulb in a 400w balissed dimmed down? ( only during veg stage ) thank you in advance
Lex, good stuff as always, i scored a deal on a 150watt hps grow light. $14 us. So, kinda got me psyched. I am doing a hybrid hps, cfl, and led. Im doing a small grow 2x2. For educational purposes. Lol
Hello Lex. Your videos have been really helpful to me as a first time grower. Keep up the good work. I've got a question for you though. I use a 2 units of 250w Hps lights in my closet. They are both connected to 2 magnetic ballasts. I know both bulbs sum up to 500w but I don't know how many watts each ballast draws (both ballasts were designed for 250w bulbs). Can you help me out? Thanks.
Yo blazer I have a small mmj set up and would like to know if I can flower with my 600w HID till I have the cash for a HPS 600w I Ben using a t5s but it thT time? Thanks n much love
Enter me into the #LexLEDGiveaway ; You probably should go over the pros and cons of purple wide&targeted-spectrum LEDs and white full-spectrum LEDs, since even the low-cost LEDs are beginning to be sold with white spectrums (Roleadro 300w/600w 60/120 LED grow panel).
I've survived 50 years without being violated, and I ain't about to take it now. bullets, knives, boobytraps, and unconventional weaponry will be coming in real useful soon. enemies will go boom. community and family may be your safety circle but choose wisely. use your head and your heart. I suggest. getting plenty of plastic sheeting, plywood and nails/screws, tools, maybe door armor, window coverings, and an exit or two that aren't obvious. maybe even a small turret on to of the homestead or a nearby tower. hedges, fences, locked gates, surveillance equipment and alarms, solar lights, etc will also help secure your perimeter. plan for body disposal. maybe even purchase some of those anti rape devices they sell that shred the perpetrator. bear spray, and cs/cn sprays are white effective as a deterrent as well.

Nice video comparing conversion bulbs and high pressure sodium! Thank you for the information.
Hey lex will this metal halide light bulb fit and work inside a regular home light socket ? Or does it require a special fixture?
I think they need ballasts, but im not positive...
Hi thank you for this very informative video. Would like to know if to purchase a Daylight MH or Cool White for optimal results?
How would it compare to a mercury vapor situation?
Is metal halide the one edison made?
what about lec?? can you get into the 3100k and 4something k , aren't the colors real close for veg to bloom stage ? is hps good to add ?? and the effects if any with the hps , sorry about the dumb question but I'm totally a newb 😶

Hello Lex.

Thanks.
Each magnetic ballast adds a good 100-150W, depending on the ballast. So you are actually looking at closer to 800W when you add those in.

So my bulbs are good for a year? My local shop has me buying new bulbs every grow which is 3 months total!
Can use it even more than a year but then you will see that the harvest is decreasing a little but at least 4 grows is fine.
Hey could you help me out with a mh setup plz.
Ty
Lex I have a question if thats ok,is it ok to dimm a mh bulb?
yes, there's a lot of dimmable ballasts. it depends on the ballast, rather than bulb.
@@LexBlazer thanks very much.i have a 600 watt lumatek dimmable digital ballist and I wasnt sure
Thanks!
First thing you should start is by saying do not touch the glass
I prefer the metal halides start to finish! Or just led gym lights 6000 k
Why not 1000and turn down the balist
Thanks Henk de banaan
