I have a 600 W Hortilux bulb, modern. When I turn on the ballast, the bulb flickers a lot resembling it is going to turn on, but never does. Is this a problem with the bulb, the socket, the ballast or what? Thanks!
How do I exactness for this plant?
Answers:    First item you should do is check to see if the old bulb be the same as the up to date. (HPS or Metal Halide).

In general, ballasts will run just one type of bulb so if you switched from HPS to MH by mistake you will have problems.

If the older bulb ignited okay, it is most potential the bulb that is the problem. You should pocket the bulb back to the store and ask them to check it in one of their ballasts. But I suspect that it's a problem beside the type of bulb you bought since most ballasts will last for years lacking problems.
