Default Radium 20K

Isn't it true Steve that MH take a few minutes to fire up, reaching full intensity gradually?

Someone else has mentioned that would be a more natural "dawn" effect than the instant "click" of the FL tubes. Another suggested staggering the photoperiods side to side, in an attempt to simulate the sun moving across the tank. I guess then maybe the light would "rise" on the one side and "set" on the other?

Just a thought...
