I have a fairly small grow space, roughly 4 ft height box by 2ft width. Can this bulb plug into a regular socket, IM currently using 2 cfls from homedepot that are 42watt and 32 watt. http://cgi.ebay.com/150W-CFL-HYDROP...ryZ42225QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem
it has its own ballast built into it. meaning it will screw into a regular lamp usually.i am currently using 2 150watt cfl for 2 plants. since im figuring u cant afford hps or anything like that. cfl is the best way to grow with. but i highly recommend for optimal growing use 1 150watt cfl for each plant.personally i did that and my last grow ended up being 3-4 ft monsters! both indica and both females!if u need any advice u can pm me.
HEY SORRY I JUST REALIZED THAT LIGHT WONT FIT ON A REGULAR SCREW IN LAMP! you can go to the store in the lighting area anywhere and buy one of those spirally cfl bubls for much cheaper at the same wattage.i got mine for $9 each and plus u dont want to wait for shipping and all that.sorry i just opened the link and realized.

good find tahoejoe, I use ebay all the time and that light will work fine. Just throw in a MH conversion bulb and you have it made. Here's one with both bulbs for $125 including shipping. http://search.ebay.com/_W0QQsassZ360summer360QQhtZ-1
