I have a light ballast by GLO or Power-Glo that takes 34"/85cm bulbs, I'm a complete novice when it comes to grow lights so excuse my basic knowledge on the topic. I'm assuming the ballast is primarily for an aquarium but I'm sure it could be used as a fairly decent grow light.
My question is what would be a good bulb for vegetative growth or if this is a waste of time can anyone recommend a light setup that won't break the bank and not consume a massive amount of power? Also, someone I know mentioned 18,000K is what I need for good growth.. What does that mean and is that correct?
