Guys we could probably pool our resources and open up a shop to sell all the generic grow and bloom bulbs we get with our fixtures... LOL...
Okay, I got my new 4-bub on it's way and 4 flora suns on their way... this will be my last purchase for a long while.
Will probably mix and match some of the reds from the top fixture into the side lighting too. And I think I'll take the two retrofitted tubes off the fixture and hang them in the front or between rows of plants in the middle as more side lighting. This will allow me to hang the fixture lower and closer at the top, and the bulbs can get more direct exposure since they have no real reflectors anyway. I'm thinking I will try to dangle them between the plants so both sides of the bulbs are being put to good use.
