I was thinking the same thing. I'm guessing 315 cmh or led. Makes me want to order a c.o.b. set or strips. The t5 just ain't keeping pace with cmh or less from what I'm seeing.

I don’t like my 315s for early clones or seedlings, but after the roots have established , they rock.
I find seedlings n clones tend to stretch under the 315s .
I like the T5s to start things , they stack nodes well.

Ok, that is similar to how my old MH 250w was, great for veg but I'd have to shade clones and seedlings until they got going.

Cheers and thanks for the heads up.

4 lamp T5s, not sure how long I'll veg yet. Got a Blackdog 400 Phyto Max for flowering.

I like the T5s for veg. Maybe next time I'll just run the Blackdog from start to finish for comparison.

Here's my weird looking cooking wreck that is turning out really nice in the right front of the tent. Nugs have been swelling and stacking nicely. Left front is a copper chem, just in for for about a week. Behind that a purple mountain majesty and behind the cookie wreck is my critical + 2.0.View attachment 4177524

Here is a picture of one of the buds and close up on the trichs.

Very nice, I've got two that have identical looking leaves. Nice to see what they're gonna look like. Rusty from CV told me that was an Arcata Trainwreck trait.

I have a cnc with that same leaf curve too it. How many did you see that on? How many did you pop? I popped 3 and only one is doing that. Funny, I was thinking about using the search bar to see if I could dig something about it out of this thread.

The two bigger fans that bent like that are from the tent door ducking in. Bc I run negative pressure. But I only germed 2 CNC. Both were female. This one jus vegged out faster. So it went in first. In 20 or so the other one will go in. It looks sati dom. Prob another fukn stardawg dom. Lol. But I have some magnum opus to flower. And chemtrail cookie breath pheno 2 that is jus outrageous. Topped once. The mains have so many nodes so close to each other. They almost look like colas forming in outdoor. When they first start flowering. Right before they stretch. The first pheno was shot in flower so I yanked it. I also have hibernate germed. 4 of them. In paper towels. And 3 deputy's. But I gotta flower some of the females I got in veg. I have like 18 different ones going. Something like that.

Exactly what I was thinking
I've got the T5 for starters but it just takes forever to get the 3rd set of leaves up before they dig in and take off a bit
Click to expand...
same here. Gonna take a chance on a 20K 8 bulb 2ft bank due to space, my current 6500K gets em up, but not much else, no matter how close. I always hit em with the mh in the tent though, heavier air movement and that HID seems to harden em up pretty quick. With GPS strains Im gonna keep flowering first month MH, then switch bulbs. I can only dream bout them cob thingies and the led thingabajigs per money.

The seedlings I've started under the T5 the past month have been slow away and almost stunted after 1st set of leaves but I'm in aust and we are at the end of winter so temps and soil not drying out quick enough may be the problem

I seen grows where T5s are used for flowering and I know they work ok for autos but never tried a photo under them the whole grow.
The autos while buds were nice were still a bit light on for weight due to T5 I think but they grew well for height and node stacking

This is exactly what I was gonna say,my 315s aren't as good as my 5000k cobs or the 12 bulb t5.i always get better looking plants under the cobs than the cmh for sure.t5 is obsolete any more though.im running 200 watts of cob that blows my 12 bulb t5 out of rhe water at 400 watts

Right on. I was curious if it might be a trait that would help identify a specific pheno.
Click to expand...
Now the other fans are curved like that. That's the first I've seen that out of GPS gear. But it might be trait of the cookies n chem possibly. I imagine theres quite a few phenos. And I don't think theres been a tremendous amount of them run that's been shown out. Other than some of regulars in here and flex on IG.

How old r your bulbs?
Click to expand...
Gd question I see where your coming from but although I've had this T5 fixture 4 bulb for approx 5 yrs I've only really used it for seedlings for weed and chillis and only at most run it for 2 months a year ...but I run it 24/7 and I've often wondered if I would see more growth going 18 or so hours instead.
So I would say the bulbs are 8-10 months old x 24/7 at the very most

I need to add I'm an outdoor grower apart from running a few 1000wt hps hydro 20 years ago in the old Chinese hats ..so I've been left behind technology a bit in regards to leds ,cobs and all the other fancy stuff :)

Lamp life for a T5 is 20,000 hours but, the quality and quantity of light dimimshes after about 6 months.
