An improved ceramic discharge (hanging) lamp is designed for growing plants. A top mounted quick disconnect ballast provides maximum reflection area around the bulb. This also provides a quick disconnect for maintenance. Multiple ballasts can be daisy chained from one high voltage receptacle. An augmented LED or other light source can be attached to a lower frame or to the top frame to provide added light colors at various growth stages. A controller can vary the cycle times of each augmented light panel. The primary reflector maximizes the efficiency of the bulb.
