Omega Metal Halide Lamp

The Omega Metal Halide Lamp grow bulb has a good amount of light in the blue spectrum, which plants need when in their vegetative phase. This blue light prevents plants from stretching and ensures that your plants remain compact and dense before the flowering stage.

It’s an ideal lamp for any hydroponic grow room or tent as it has several attributes and features, and they include the following:

• Super Lumen metal halide lamps can produce a broad spectrum of light compared to HPS lamps
• Capable of producing over 58,000 lumens
• Carries the CE Mark and a minimum of one year’s guarantee
• Triggers considerably better growth in the vegetative stage of growth

The Omega MH is a highly affordable bulb. It maximises a plant’s vegetative growth and has incredible colour intensity.

How do the Metal Halide Lamps Work?

This product is a metal halide lamp that emits a blue light which, combined with its high-intensity levels, provides ideal light conditions for outstanding vegetative growth.

This light assists in keeping internodes short and encourages robust growth from plants. These lamps produce more than 58,000 lumens, delivered at a colour temperature of 6400 Kelvin. This combination of light ensures that the height levels of your plants are kept low; your plants will grow bushier rather than taller, which means that they will be more robust when required to carry the load of flowers or fruit which they will have to shoulder.

Alternate your bulb for an HPS grow light when your plants begin to flower. Omega Lighting’s finely engineered lamps ensure optically superior products. Beam patterns are considerably smoother, with fewer striations and hot spots. They are very energy-efficient, tuned, and optimised to provide a much higher PAR output.

How Do I Use the Lamp?

These grow lights are for indoor and hydroponic environments, so you should use them as part of a professional setup that includes both ballasts and reflectors. You should note that this is also only for use during a plant’s vegetative growth.

Ensure that the lamp is thoroughly cleaned, use a clean cloth and never touch the glass. Screw it into the E40 fitting on the reflector. You must screw your light in tightly to avoid the inner fixture arcing. After doing this, you should connect the reflector cable to your chosen ballast, and your lamp should begin to light.

When using these lamps, they tend to have a high temperature. So you must avoid touching them with your fingers; always allow a generous amount of time for the bulb to cool before you start handling it.
