Proper watering techniques promote root growth....not light.

more blue makes a stockier plant iirc.

should probably work fine but take into account you dont want youre clones close to an led strip like you would a floro strip.

It going to be pretty close to the dome probably probably half a foot above the dome. These led strip light are 20 to 40w each strip.

Going be in rockwool or rapid plug inside a dome I only will pre soak it an shake out any excess water. Then lightly spray the dome lid

T5 6500k gives the tightest nodes for my clones.

The T5 tubes in your list is my pick over the led but they are not available. T5 High Output is better.

I’ve using some of the T5 LED’s from your second link for garage lighting. I’m sure they would work fine for clones.

 

[lungbutter]

i wouldnt use them for actually cloning, too powerful for that, but for bringing on young clones after rooting they'd be fine.

You think 1 light per shelf rack will do or 2 light per rack

1 would be plenty, clones don’t need a lot of light.
