    A little more help please. LOA are not availible at HD in Canada. Are they 15-28 watt lamps with self contained balasts ? How many watts do I need for an area 16" X 24" X 12" deep ?
    Thanks Rob

    I am using (2) 100w grow bulbs and the feather calurpa loves it, as well as my mangroves. Color is a bit yellow but it seems to do the trick.
