T5 Fluoro question

Discussion in 'Grow Room Design/Setup' started by jbyrd, Apr 24, 2009.

  1. Any input on T5's? I am looking at using these for my veg/clone tent instead of the two standard fluoro fixtures and plant bulbs. I'm sure the T5's have got to be better than that from what I'm reading. Any heat issues with these? Can they get as close to the plants as CFL/regular fluoro's? 1 4'x 8 bulb New wave t5 is what I'm looking at. Think that will work a 4' x 4' tent for veg/clone only?

    Thanks for any input!
     
  2. personally i was gonna use the t5 all the way thru, but IMO

    use the t5's and maybe some other cfl bulbs..

    and then use hps to flower.

    i really would like to use a t5
