Question # of MH light hrs.

I have 720 watts of flr. light over a 240. They are on for 13hrs a day. I also have two 175 10k's and one 400 20k. Currently I have the 175's on for 5hrs and the 400 on for 2hrs; trying to simulate mid-day sun.

How many hours a day do you run your MH's??

My halides come on at 13:00 and go off at 22:00 for a total of 9 hours.
