Been having a rough time with temp in my grow room... Using a new digital ballast and an air cooled hood... Can't figure why temp is so high I the tent... That quite literally a light bulb went off in my head... I'm using an old bulb I had from my first grow aprox 8years ago... I had a hps ballast and am using the mh conversion bulb I had. Here is a pic of what I'm using in hood now
Than I thought why is the new bulb I have so much smaller in size...
Could the old conversion bulb being putting off much more heat than a plain old MH bulb like I just got? Well am going to swap bulbs out in a bit and soon find out... Question I have is the old
Bulb says 38,000 lumen and new bulb just says cct 5200k, so correct me if I'm wrong the new bulb has more lumens than old one?
