As the above comment states, you're fucking up your bulb and ballast.

If you can't move the plants, just bring in a 6500k cfl or an led flashlight or something, if it's really hard with the color from the hps, but I think most people using hps can kinda just tell what the differences are in color. I know when I'm at friend's houses checking out their plants I can tell the difference between purple and green, and green and light green, and red, and pale and burnt under hps, in agreement with xswimtothemoon.

of course you wouldn't have this problem if you'd been using a better grow light from the start. go CMH! "White" power!


The green light I don't really see helping you, if you can't see under an orange/yellow light why would a green one be any better?

and it does not fck ur ballast unless ur ballast is ancient they dont strike the bulb till it cools well every ballast ive owned wont takes about 15 minz to restrike after u turn it off then on

how does it help r u retarted?
it allows u to work on ur plants during dark period it gives u light if u need absolute white light to see diff shades of colour then u have issues
green light true green will not interfere with lights out

yeah, didn't say it would, just that he said he turned his hps off so he could see the colors, so he probably wouldn't be able to see the colors under a green light either

Yeah i noticed it won't restrike immidiately after turning off.. lol
Anyway i turned the light of at 10 pm so the light schedule is now 10am On- 10pm Off.
Maybe it's better in the daytime now cause it's starting to rain and we have black outs sometimes. God Bless my UPS
