The Grower’s Choice 6K 1000 W DE MH is a premium double-ended metal halide lamp engineered specifically for the vegetative stage of plant growth. Emitting a crisp 6,000 Kelvin spectrum, it recreates the feel of spring sunlight to encourage short internodal spacing and lush, bushy canopies. Housed in a high-quality quartz arc tube, this lamp is designed for consistent PAR delivery and reliable spectral output. It maintains approximately 90 % light output even after 5,000 operating hours and ensures a stable lifecycle through its rated period of around 6,000 hours. At its full 1,000 W capacity, the 6K DE MH produces roughly 95,000 lumens at 100 hours. But if this lighting system is too powerful for your grow space, then take a look at the ROI-E420 system, or the smaller 10K 1000W SE for better light management.
