Well, after a few months with the XM 10k's, I've decided to try Hamilton 14k's for a little more blue. I've notice more people use the 10k's with more actinic supplementation than I do. I am using two 140W URI VHO's, and to me, it's still a little, "yellow" to me. If anything, I'll keep the 10k's as backups, or sell 'em if I like the Hamiltons. They're burning in as I type. I know the 20K's might be too much, and not enough par, so I'm hoping the 14k's are a nice middle ground.

But damn it, I need a cheaper hobby!

Thing about this hobby.
It can be $$$, but it's really as expensive as you make it.
The problem is the bug that bites you, the bug that keeps telling you to make it bigger and better.
:D

Well, so far.... VERY blue to what I'm used to. But, I know they'll take a few days to burn into their true color.

Yup, Hamiltons start out VERY blue. Give it a week.
