Thanks buddy. I'm trying. Decided i'm gonna lug em out every day that it is sunny, just so they can get some extra light... they are out sunbathing right now and loving it. (the 3 larger ones)

I'm assuming that flowering with these prehistoric flouros is not going to be worthwhile..?

You have like t-12 or t-8s?
I have tried using these as supp lighting, and they are not great at all.
T-5s can be worthwhile for flowering I would think though.
I have used them for fill lighting on a Grape kRush and the side buds were solid and full like the the tops

2 pins side and 34 watts each is prolly T-8
The lumens they put out are so low they have to basically touch the plants to get the light

EDIT

I think several CFL swirly bulbs will help you flower better than T8s will

I sold my 400 watt ballast bulb and wing for $50 and now I need it in my veg tent since my T-5 ballasts are bad.
I have 2 different fixtures with a bad ballast that went bad a month apart.
