Hi, I have purchased from a 400w MH/HPS setup from a friend and want to replace my T5 with it.
Only problem is its heavy as **** and seems to emit quite a lot of heat for my little grow space.
I would like to have you opinion on my setup. I was planning to lower the shelf supporting the peppers by 5 or 10 inches and replace the T5 with the MH reflector.
This is an "old" ballast, meaning not the new electronic ones... I would have it on the floor.
I am wondering if the light will be too intense for my apartment...
I am also worried with heat build up if I try to close the shelves with mylar bubble sheets.
Is this a go, or a no-go?? It would definitely help my SLOOOOOOOOOOOOWWW growing chinenses.
