i dunno about the wiring up sorry over here in the u.k out electrics are not the same
but as far as using a MH for veg and flower you can do it but your weed will be crap as the MH lights are the wrong color spec you need a HPS for flowering...but you can mix MH with HPS lights during the flowering period and this will boost your yield as the plants will be receiving both color spectrum's white for veg and red for flowering.

metal halides are good for vegging but can also be used for the whole grow just the nodes will be tighter and bud yield wont be quite as much

i got it wired
