Ok, I already know that its not ideal and that it will probably shorten the life of my bulb but the question I'm wondering is: Will this fuck with my plants cycles and cause hermies??
So the plan is to have 3 lights in my room, 2 4' floros and a 400w HPS unfortunately the 400w brings up the temp in my little room way too high and causes stunting and burning in the plants but the 64w of floros just isn't enough for flower. I was wondering if I would be able to run the HPS for say 2 hours on 2 off 4 on 2 off 2 on (or something like that) during my 12 hour lights on period to allow the room to cool off a bit (the floros would stay on for the full 12 hours).
I know the proper solution is to buy an air cooled reflector or get an air conditioner but as it is right now do you think it would work?
Thanks a lot everyone
