Hello all,
This is my first post on the site. I am currently using the grow lab 120 for six plants at a time(soil). For lighting T-5 4 tubes 4ft each. With UFO 90 watt LED for flowering. Ventilation have a big rotating 18" on all the time with a smaller vortex piece just to move air around. I am also getting a 5000 BTU air conditioner in four days. I will be growing OG Kush. Going to veg my females (supposedly all ten of them are feminized seeds) for a month 20/4 light. Then transition to 12/12 by reducing and hour every day till 12/12 light. I am using for nutrients Flora grow and Flora bloom with superthrive plus Root 66 then to finish it off Kool bloom liquid and dry. Also I planned on vegging the ladies till at height between 12"-14" then force flowering.

My main question is my lighting system. I was going to use my T-5's for obviously the first month then keep using the T-5s plus UFO 90 watt LED for flowering. Is that going to be enough light to average around 2oz's plus per plant(Dried weight) . I have considered on top of the current light system adding 6500K CFL couple bulbs not sure which wattage for the budding stage.

Any suggestions? Is it a good setup? I personally think that i should of never had returned my HPS 400watt setup I had before but I cant go back now. So would adding CFL's to my current setup benefit any growth of my bud's?

Also I will have in a week pictures of the setup.

Thanks everyone in advance

I doubt very much that you will yield 2oz per plant if you only veg them to 12"-14" seems a bit small. I;m vegging mine under 2-400Mh lights for close to 2 months, and i'm hoping for 2oz a plant. And they would be much larger then 12"14" if I had not LST.
I don't know much about the LCD UFO's, but i think you made a mistake when you got rid of that 400 watter.
Good Luck,
TMB's-

Alright so I am getting a 1000 watt hps set up. To solve my problem. But will 1000 watts be to much heat to deal with, I will not have it air cooled instead (5000btu)a/c to cool down the entire grow room plus closet. How far away would I start out the hps from tops of plants?
