Can I use this Plantmax 400 watt bulb in my Apollo Horticulture 400 Watt Hydroponic MH HPS Grow Light Dimmable Digital Ballast

I use this bulb in a dimmable digital ballast. My ballast works for both MH and HPS, so you'll want to check that yours does both.

This(HPS bulb) is meant for flowering.........use a metal halide for vegetative.

It works with any CFL bulb with a standard thread Hydroponic Full Spectrum CFL Grow Light Bulb 60 Watt Bulb 5500K H60 is what I have in mine over some seedlings right now

im sure you could but then thats kind of a waste cause if your not using a 400w ballast then the red and the blues are not correct for the bulb

the ballast has to be HPS and wattage compatible. if you can afford it, the best is the dual arc 1000w

use the mh... this bulb is more than capable... but Id go with a cheaper MH bulb for veg since light is less critical in the veg stage

No you will need a mogule base socket that are used with only hps/mh lighting, you can buy adapters, just remember you'll also need a ballast to light this bulb

600 watt is magnificent with a dimmable ballast you can cover such a wide range of everything. This is definitely not a hardwired ballast

yes you can I recommend the Apollo 400 watt metal halide only like 17 bucks high quality definitely gets the job done

I used a 400 watt MH bulb with the ballast no issues. I don't see why a 200 watt wouldn't work.

Nop..aah, this bulb requires a "MOGUL" type socket from your local hardware store, it's a streetlight mercury vapor type(bout twice as big as a household socket). The HPS bulbs will require a ballast with equal wattage. but you can opt to run it with typical household 110 current.

All you will have to do is buy this power cord: http://www.amazon.com/Apollo-Horticulture-240-Digital-Ballast/dp/B00EJVZLNC/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1416946145&sr=8-1&keywords=240V+power+cord

It's really hard to speak in terms of "watts" when addressing LEDs. It always comes down to lumens. I have the 24-36 Inch Marineland light and it keeps my moss balls quite healthy. This is due to the Blue light providing the specific wavelength required for vegetative growth. Rather than going forward in terms of "watts", calculate the lumens generated by the 120 watt you're told you need...then calculate the lumens generated by the lights you have and fill in the blanks with add-on modules.

look malaka, as long as your light is 12 volt it should work you did not mention the watt's but as long as you dont exceed 200 watt with what other lights you are using.

Yes, Plantmax mh bulbs will work.on both 120v & 240v ballasts. Also will work on Digital ballast....

Yes, you can use this bulb in any digital ballast of 600 watts as far as I know. I use different brand bulbs in digital dimmable ballast.
