That sounds fucking awesome. What about something like this 250 watts HPS ballast kit from HTG? It should come to around the same price but 1000bulbs is a bitch for shipping to canada.
 
that would great but!!! heat will be an issuse. your going to need a lot of air movement (intake/exhast) but if you want to try it IT CAN BE DONE. so before you arm you grow box for war, have a plan. if your serious about this let me know. ill research some items that will help u
 
Oh, I get it. I'll stick to the 150 for now then, I think I'll go with what you recommended. Wiring isn't too hard is it?
Would this be an option? Would wiring be harder?
 
hey u still have the white spots??c/c Iron - Fe is unavailable to plants when the pH of the water or soil is too high. If deficient, lower the pH to about 6.5 (for rockwool, about 5.7), and check that you're not adding too much P, which can lock up Fe. Use iron that's chelated for maximum availability. Read your fertilizer's ingredients - chelated iron might read something like "iron EDTA". To much Fe without adding enough P can cause a P-deficiency.
