Follow these simple tips to ensure that your hydroponic garden is safe
1) It doesn’t help in anyway to continuously leave the grow lamps on in your garden, unless for those plants and/or a plant growth stages that really call for a 24-hour lamps requirement.

2) Make sure you periodically check for any damaged cords; worn out cords with wires exposed can increase the risk of fire and even electrical shock to the operator.

3) See that the grow lamps are not exposed to water as several grow lamps accidents reported are because of the same reason.

4) Organizing the cords of the grow lamps and keeping them away from fire is always advised. Tangled cords pose tripping hazard so bundle them and tape to make the place more organized.

  1. I just wanted to say that you need to be really careful when handling water around hps or metal halide grow lights as it can cause them to explode. When watering your plants move your lights higher if possible to prevent water splashing on them.
