| Re: what am i doing wrong thanks i'll give that a try. my actinics are only a month old and halides are only 2 weeks.this all started when i started to move it closer to the lights maybe it was to soon ,i only waited obout a week befor i started moving it.than we had a ice storm witch knocked out power for a day.i guess just a series of unfortunt events.anyway it does seem to be perking back up a little latly so .hopfully time will heal the pain.thanks again this forium has been very helpfull. |
