Get a Heat Sheild from your local hydro shop, I was speaking to a fellow member... claimed heat sheild worked wonders, can bring closer to plants and have more even plants rather than having plants growing away from the heat, burnt crisps heads etc etc only cost approx $25.00 that you add on with when you screw in the globe holder.

 

Heat sheild is a small sheet of tin/metal with lots of tiny holes that you put under the globe it stops giving too much heat downwards onto your beauty head colas/plants but....doesnt change the grow area/room tempetures so I have been told, which makes sense.

 

I am getting one soon.
