I ordered a 600w open reflector hps for flowering from ebay for $90. It has a dimmable digital ballast I hope it works out for my area. This is the one I got, is it a good ballast? I hope the ballast is fanless so it stays quieter.

Cool. Just be careful mate keep a close eye when u try it. It will fry them without good ventilation. How's the flowering coming along.

It is real entertaining that's for sure. And I will definitely monitor it closely. I live with my op so that is no problem. These are from the last couple of days

Me too, mainly because I'm anxious for both of us to have dried and curing buds! Really excited to roll up some home grown for the first time.

What is the temp running at now from when you started? Did you order a new exhaust system with the fan? Running that type of light will heat up the tent even more?

With my current setup, I have a 20" box fan exhaust and for intake I have a 10" box fan. It creates a lot of negative pressure (not a bad thing) and my temps stay consistently around 80 and never higher than 82 farenheight. I'm using 500w of assorted CFLs.
