You cant blaim moisture in a growing room.
A horticultural reflector must be made to work in a extreme climate.
I dont think the Chinese understand growroom specs.
Very true!

I don't really have anything to add but it's a good thing you didn't have a fire. Have you contacted the manufacturer/distributor of the product? You might be able to get a replacement.
I do not know the wiring of your lamp, but if that is not a safety ground, or ground strap for the reflector was it hot? A hot wire will short and weld to ground like that. In fact if left to go it will burn completely up and could start a fire if no circuit protection interrupts it. I thought it was a ground strap when I first seen it and you convinced us otherwise. What does the blue wire do? What is it's purpose?
That's the return wire. Be careful if you open up your ballast. The cap(s) will hold a dangerous charge, even when the ballast is unplugged.
