Default Metal Halide, Best value?
permalink
I just had my Hortilux Blue metal halide die on me, great spectrum but only lasts 6 months... anyway, I don't really want to shell out $100 for another bulb just to have it die on me again. What 400w MH bulbs are the best value? Do I REALLY need an enhanced spectrum? Thanks...
