I have three under it...its the pots that make it hard. I just have an oscillating fan going back and forth across the grow area, pointed slightly upward. Really isnt that hot. I turn mine on at night though because it gets hot in the room during the day because of location.

It's easy because it comes with a diagram... all you need to do is buy an extension cord, cut it, and put the wires together! And also a light bulb obviously... CMH is great!

I can't wire either. The one from htg that I bought came with everything you need...no wiring.

Fuk it..Ima go with the HTG one...seems better in terms of reliability/quality...good yields and good quality lighting seem to go hand in hand with this hobby...

you are better off i think. I ilke the htg light because it has a glass lens over the bulb which helps keep the heat down a bit and just seems a lot safer than having an exposed bulb. For my HTG 250 i run between 6 and 10 plants but i'm using the sog method.

Hold on..I dont think were talkin' about the same light...cus the HTG 150W Im talking about comes with an open air reflector,meaing theres no lens shieling the bulb...either way,what do you usaully yield with a 250HPS SOG?I plan on growing 10-12 small plants under a single 150W HPS...sounds good?

hey for some reason the links arent workin for me, but I've got the Floralux 150 from htg supply, and I'm happy

How many plants do YOU put udner the 150??Does it get hot??How did they come packaged....when I order from HTG..I dont want a huge sign of HTG Supply on the side of the box!!Lol...Gimmer al your input on the light you purchased from them..and how well they shipped!!Thanks

O i just noticed ur thing said cheapest, its not the cheapest, but i think its better than getting the cheapest. it came in a plain brown box, it did say it was from htg supply, but it was very discreet. the light was in a white box that was inside the brown box, packaged very nicely. I have 4 plants under it now, in a pretty shitty set up, rite now its in a book case thats turned on its side. I'v only dealt with cfl's before this, so heat was something new to me, but it's easily controlled with an exhaust fan. It's about 10lbs because it has the ballast attached, so you gotta make sure whatever ur hangin from can handle it, but if its a decent set up you should be alright. I recieved it within a week of ordering, which is really unheard of where I am. I have nothing but good things to say about HTG Supply. and actually, thats what the majority of people will tell you

edit* I have four plants under it because thats all the space i have in the bookcase. I plan on moving it to a closet, where I plan to start a perpetual grow w/more plants. ppl will tell you not to do this because you wont get optimum results, but I'm happy w/the results Iv gotten, so Im gonna get on the perpetual

Good to hear...you think I can manage heat with a couple normal fans poitning directly at the bulb??I dont have the funds to buy some good exhuast fans...you heard me??!
