F4T4LSHOT;
I had to go with T-5's due to heating problems...and up in till now it seems to be working. I think that next week I will add 2 more 4' T-5's. That should add about 10,000 lumens....so we'll see how it goes! |

ya I have had great success with my my T-5's obviously HPS and MH work cause not 80% of grows would use them if they didnt work but the people who use them are going to swear to them so its really up to the person I used to have a 600 HPS and a 4 HPS light and my electricity bill was 169 dollars now on my T-5 its 68 dollar's and plus they produce a shit load of less heat so seriously man its really a personal preference do your own research and make your decision not these preference opinions Good luck man

Hey crazy!! do you know what T-5's are? Obviously not. With enough T-5's you can get upwards of 100,000 lumens for half the price and NONE of the heat. And you can cover the full spectrum! These things are awesome! Got 3 4 footers in my room myself. Just dont listen to that guy dude. There was an article in high times recently about growing with T-5s. If you have enough, which you do, they can compete with any hps. And no, you dont need an hps to be serious about growing, thats bad information. T-5's are awesome, they grow great plants, they dont get hot, they use TONS less energy which is good for your wallet as well as mother earth. So no, dont listen to him and think you need different lights or a hps. What you have is completely fine. Your T-5's (which ARE "flo's" as you call them crazy-mental) are doing absolutely fine. Great grow man! Way to show everyone you dont need a certain light just because its popular. Im rebelling in my own little way  Check out My little babies!! Sorry about all the mess though. About 15 pages are people shitting on me for doing more than one plant per pot and me defending myself. I pretty much explain my plans on the first page or two. Anyways, check em out. Tips, advice, anything is welcome. | how are t5s cheaper then hps my 600 was 140,my 8 t5s were 440,how do they use less energy,how many gramms per watt are you pulling off your t5s that make them way more efficient.  |
