I have an extra 600W ballast and hood sitting around that I want to add into my grow room. I need to buy a bulb for it as I only have a spare 400w hps. I am curious is my ballast able to operate a cmh bulb, and if so what kind would I need? I was at my hydro store today and I was told that there is no 600w cmh and I may need some kind of more expensive converter bulb based on my ballast. So I would figure I would come here and ask you fine folks for some help.
Can I fit a 600w cmh into an 600w hps, do i need 'converter'? or expensive bulbs? or is it too much hassle and stick with hps, which is what I'm very close to doing.
