Dez, so basically that sunmaster warm deluxe doesn't put out many more lumens than some six hundreds if I'm reading what you're saying correctly. I understand the difference between par and lumens, so where does the sunmaster lamp stack up as far as par is concerned with a six hundred is the question my mind asks. If you're not going to get much more benefit from that 1k than you would a six hundred, then I would opt for a regular mh lamp to go with your mh ballast, might as well get as many lumens and as much par radiation as possible. Why, in my humble opinion, waste the electric to run a 1k, not to mention the heat produced if you are not going to get much more benefit to your plants than a six hundred would provide...am I making sense?
