There is no such thing a "12-3 THHN".



Someone else wrote "pull 12-3 w/ground THHN". Is that more acceptable
(I understood what he was trying to tell me--2 hots, a common and a ground)?



The ballast in each fixture must be wired in parallel with respect
to all other ballasts on the same circuit the same way one wires multiple
incandescent fixtures on the same circuit.

I think I could wire that using 2 wire connectors each connecting 4
wires, grounds extra. The picture is helpful. Thank you.
