So the great debate continues. Well now I have a small pile of newish bulbs sitting in storage because of this debacle.
I've decided it's nearing time to throw the bonsai into flower in about a week or so. I will be employing the 400W super hps.
Finally I see no reason to buy special HPS bulbs like the Ushio with added blue or whatever, it seems to me we are just buying over priced garage lights because HPS light can not be altered as effectively as halide light.
Anyway I think I've said the CMH thing is cancelled, I've been reading a massive thread of 700 pages on another forum about this whole shenanigans and it just doesn't live up to the hype is what more than one poster who actually employed the bulbs concluded. Many said 1kw HPS had done better in the end.
I know I know, internet is full of b.s. and that's why real Universities are still in business but still, I expected CMH to have a unanimous rave result and it doesn't seem to. So I'm going back to DIY multiband LED solutions. Price is about the same in the end and I don't need to deal with bulbs damaged during delivery, or exploding bulbs when I accidentally do something stupid in its vicinity while it's hot etc. etc....
Maybe pics later
