Source for Enviro Gro bulbs

Post by Cactus Kid »

I am looking for replacement bulbs for the Enviro Gro system. (see link below)

https://www.greenhousepeople.co.uk/prod ... t-4-tubes/

I have tried the company that I bought the system from but they no longer supply just the bulbs due to breakages during transport. I have tried hydroponic shops but they tend not to stock the type needed. :lol:

The bulbs are `Auro Brite High output 54w 6400k'

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

All the 6400K ones on eBay seem to ship from the US.

Yes, I noticed that Tony.

The only links to suppliers I can find in the UK are hydroponic places but when I tried them the T5 lights they had gave off a murky yellow brown colour, whereas the original ones are a very bright white blue shade.

I use envirogrow lights and get the bulbs from "growell" they're a hydroponics shop but I've not noticed the murky yellow , they seem fine to me
