Love the t5. I personally think the mixed spectrum grows better smoke.You flower with t5 right? I'm thinking of starting a perpetual sog. Starting under t5 and every 2 weeks moving closer to the 600 hps that I'm currently using. Just replaced my 400 mh with a 4 bulb 4 foot for veg and I'm super happy with it. Hoping my flower idea works out. Edit to clarify....I want to add a 4 footer to the flower room and throw in 8-10 one gallon fresh rooted clones every two weeks. So you like the t5 is what I'm asking i guess. I'm drunk.
It will be a hybrid light. In my 2x4x6 cab I will be running the current 432 watt t5 with about 200 watts of cob. The t5 has two switches. I will run the cobs and 4 of the t5 bulbs for the whole 12 hours. The other 4 t5 bulb will come on for a few hours of that.
I added a cab I didn't like to veg in. I bought a 2x2x6 oak cab to replace it. It has roller shelves in it. I will make it 2 or 3 levels. One for mother plants, and 1 or 2 for clones and seeds.
I bought some one gallon grow bags. I can get 3 rows of 8 in my 2x4. So I will cut 3 plants every 7-10 days when its up and running right.
