I am thinking of buying a T5 light. It will be a 4ft x 6bulb light. So I was wanting to know how many plants would be good for that size light. I will be growing autos in a grow tent. thank you.

IMO I wouldn't want to have less than 100 watts per plant... or between 5 and 7 thousand lumens per sq. ft. of grow space.
