can you use a 600w HPS lamp in your house and plug it into a normal outlet? or do u need a special kind of outlet

[Harvestmeister]

Yes, 600w HPS lamp systems plug right into a regular 110V outlet. I would only consider systems that are UL/CSA listed.

The bubbles don't necessarily have to make contact with the roots. The purpose of the air pump is to simply oxygenate the nutrient solution, which will be passed on to the roots whether the bubbles touch them or not.

How much wattage in regards to HIDs are used?

[Harvestmeister]

HID lamps are available in a number of different wattages. The example shown in the video is a 250 watt metal halide (home harvest . com / sbsys . htm). The energy consumption of this light would be the equivalent of 2.5 100 watt reading lamps in your home, yet the light output is approximately 500 percent more per watt of energy consumed.

how long do the floods need to run each feeding?

[Harvestmeister]

Between 15 and 30 minutes, depending on the capability of your timer.
