I finally gave up trying to find balanced spectrum MH lights in the 150
watt range, with matching ballasts or systems. I guess no one makes them.

But what about T8's? I understand a 3-4 light T8 fixture can put out
12,000 lumens or so above your plants.

The problem I'm finding is that no one apparently makes grow light tubes
in T8, is that true? Lamps that have just the spectrum that plants need
the most?


T8 lamps are wide-spectrum already (and they maintain their brightness
well as they age.) Just get 3000k lamps -- has more red in it than
3500k or 4100k or 5000k. Plants love 'em.
