Welcome Cody. Are you bulbs t5, t8, t12's? How close are you keeping the lights to the canopy. Is your fixture High Output?
I saw you said you are about to get a MH/HPS. Did you get a reflector with that? Will you have proper ventilation? HID fixtures work great, but their only downside is their heat. So proper ventilation is necessary, otherwise the light will be so high the lumens will be reduced to nothing.
Give me some more info, and I'll be glad to help.
