You do not want to leave any fingerprints or oily residues on the glass, as this can reduce light quality and potentially cause weak spots after prolonged use. Always follow the manufacturer’s recommendations for the ideal height above the plant canopy for different reflectors, especially with 1,000-W DE bulb, as they can seriously damage plants if the luminaire is not far enough away from the crop and appropriate ventilation or light movers are not used. I recommend running 600- or 750-W DE bulb in a taller grow tent or growroom if possible (more than 7 ft.) and to take advantage of the digital ballast dimming options with younger plants. One frequent concern we receive is that the DE bulb cannot be vertically bare-hung or used in a tube-style reflector. This is easy to counter, as it’s been proven multiple times that horizontally mounted bulb are much more efficient for horticultural reflectors. Growroom temperatures will be generally lower with DE globes, as they emit more useable light per lamp, so fewer fixtures are required. If high temperatures are a real concern, it’s worth looking into reflector options with built-in ventilation ports, although this will degrade the light. Air-cooled fixtures provide significantly less usable light because the nitrogen-filled outer balloon is designed to operate at a select temperature. Some poorly designed units encourage direct airflow over the globe, causing the ballast to increase amperage to achieve the same brightness. The last point worth noting before you upgrade to a DE lighting set-up is to always ensure the ballast, bulb, and reflector work efficiently together. Newer models of DE bulb have brought 400-V technology, previously only used in commercial greenhouses with three-stage power, to home growers using ballasts that adapt residential voltage to drive a high-powered lamp. These ballasts should operate at frequencies greater than 100 kHz for a smooth, crisp light output your plants will definitely appreciate. It’s always worth talking to your local hydroponics retailer to ensure all of your equipment is compatible and effective for your growing needs.
