Will it work just thought i would ask so let say i got 250 watt bulb mh and used it on my 400 watt mh ballast would it be okay??I know you can't use a 400 watt bulb on a 250 watt ballast but don't know the other way around?? i get yes and no's just thought i would ask on here:scratchinghead:
 
okay thanks any one Else has any one on here do this??Well I guess I'll just use a florescent light for a mother and here kids. Will 2 40 watt cool whites be okay for like 1 or 2 mothers and here clones i would like to do that because I'll be using a 1000 watt hps for flowering and use my 400 watt mh if the heat not a problem for flowering OR should i just get a 175mh?? how about cfls for my mother?? One room will be for flowering 9'x9'x8' and i'm thinking of you using my garage for the mother and clones
 
I'd use the 400w MH for the clones and mothers and flower with the HPS. 2 40 watt CFLs probably isn't enough for 2 mothers and clones..
