T5 questions

I use compact ho t-5 fixture from htg (with some modifications) Flowering seems to be working fine with a combo (1/2 and 1/2). They veg way better/quicker using just the 6500k veg bulbs though. I would use the 6500k for the first 3/4 wks and then switch to 1/2 and 1/2. Ive never grown autos though.

No problem:) This is actually my first time flowering with flouro. I use a 400w hps. However, I decided to turn my 2nd cab into a flower cab too, so here it goes! LOL So far things look just fine though. Scrog works really good with flouros (hid too), its something to look into.

T5's have their place. I use two of the New Wave 2-ft. HO 4 bulb T5's for flowering. I've had some pretty decent results. Here are pics of my Blueberry, White Widow, Strawberry Cough & Dutch Dragon grows.

Using all blue bulbs during veg will definitely keep the internodes very tight. Reds normally will help induce bloom, but that's a great question when autoflowering plants are involved - I wonder if anybody here knows that yet...
