Check out videomans grow journal, you will see t-5's. The guy at my hydro shop believes the 8 bulb 4' fixture will give you a better grow than 600 watt hid. I may be buying a couple of those myself. Less heat issues and an even grow. VV

I love my T5 system. I would highly recommend it if you have limited space and don't expect to grow massive plants.

Mine might not be nearly as impressive as dude above me, but thsi is my first grow and i started with three plants and two turned out male, so i only have one left for now. I got the 4 foot 4 bulb setup with two veg and two flower bulbs. this is 4 weeks veg and one week flowering. hope the pics do it justice, threw the milk jug in for height reference. I love these lights, but i have nothing to compare to...oh well. I'm going to be buying a HPS soon, so we'll see.

4' fixture, 4 bulbs total (20k lumens)...

I was going to flower with T5, but you just cant come close to the lumen output of a HPS... My 400 watt HPS is pumping out 55k lumens!

But if heat is a major issue, I bet these T5's produce some nice buds with some flowering bulbs. I noticed when the plants are very young (under 2-3 weeks) I had to keep the plants like 6 inches away from the light or else the leafs would burn. Now that they are older, they got as close as an inch without any burning.

T5HO 6bulb setup. around 25,200 lumens, 3 plants at a time. The girls (and their pictures) have names so you know which ones are which (some are bud shots, some are cola shots).
