Pretty sure I have multiples of everything in that pic other than the 430 watt hortilux eye.

Well, I just did a quick search and 1000W HPS/MH Switchable Digital Ballasts are well within my budget - three of them would be within my budget over a brief period (by the time I get to Flower, for sure)- one I could surely afford after the 1st for Veg.

IF I were to receive everything in that picture they would be used locally...most in my plans and the other to someone close to me.

Maybe even more than what is shown IF they become available.

Dude, I could not appreciate the considerable offer!!!

This could really change my plans for the better in a most unexpected fashion!

***does this mean I have to rescind my promise to treat you unkindly in the other forums?***

Peace, brother!,

And, I said all that above knowing I just get THE message from Elon Musk!

I'd be willing to forego Starlink IF I can get my grow sorted out first! THE message I only received last night. A message I've been waiting on...

I would buy the 3 hps and 2 mh bulbs you have pictured.
That is if WHAB doesn’t need them. I have switchable ballasts so can run mh or hps all 1000 watt.

ballast are a different story, they still have a little bit of value to me and shipping might be costly.

I went to the post office yesterday to send a box of 40 root pouches to a friend, they wanted $54.38 to send them! So yeah shipping ballasts would cost a bit. I will be trying UPS and Fed Ex today and see what the cost is from them.

I've always seen post office workers tell people the highest postage rates, never mentioning their variety of flat-rate boxes. They may not be large enough for ballasts over 12" long, but for root pouches and other stuff, large ones up to 12" x 12" x 8" and 70lbs max are only $21.90, or a couple $ less if you use paypal.com/shipnow to print your own label. the flat-rate boxes can also be ordered free through USPS.com

In a nod to my friend Oldjoints... *tips cap*

IF I had to chose just two, one MH and one HPS, I'd chose the Xtrasun MH and the Xtrasun HPS.

IF you were to send the other items, the socket, the hood and the 400W bulb that would be amazing. *which, btw, I'm not entirely sure I'd use the hood BUT, I have one that I did use - I may use it. The socket for sure!

IF you can come up with a second pair of 1000W MH or 1000W HPS in the near future that would AMAZING!

OR anything you 'may' come across that you think might be helpful to me...I'd be keen to at least see what was available.

I'm not sure about using UPS right now.

I have been tracking my T5 lights and for at least 5 times it shows "Out for Delivery", I'm sure it's a bit more. maybe 6 or 7 - starting on Feb 15th, now they're saying maybe Monday, 22nd maybe the 24th.

That's just the one order. I'm getting the same thing for all the other orders - 4 in total, I think. They're all delayed.

The only one that did make it was the Johnson Paste Wax I need to protect my steel top machines AND it made it through the USPS but, it had it's own adventure

I got a message that they tried to deliver it and couldn't and it is at the local post office at my "request". I made no such request. I can't get out of my driveway and I'm hoping they'll hold it until I can get there. A couple days pass and it shows up in the mailbox in this...

COVID Winter has broken the system!

If you weren’t such a jackass I would send you a care package.

PM me your addy and what you need and I’ll think about helping you.

Let it be known far and wide that Roots doesn't think I'm "such a jackass"!

Thank you, Roots!
