Hey Tex,
Thanks for sharing your knowledge and experience with us. I know all of this information came the hard way and it is going to save lots of hard lessons for many of us. If you get a chance, I am wondering what you have found to be the best bulbs and ballasts at this point. I hear that the 240volt don't burn up or blow nearly as much on the 1KW's. Also, approximately when do you find the plants get root-bound in the small pots and you have to TX to the 3G pots?
