Hey Everyone, I'm coming into this a few years late, but the proven science behind it is very convincing. My problem is I live in a 12' x16' cabin in Alaska, so I had no choice but to get a Growlabs GL80 which is 2'7" x 2'7" x 5'11". I need a fixture that uses the 2ft T-5 bulbs and could really use advice on how I can come close to the same results your getting with the 4ft T-5's. I came across this company called HTG Supply who touted a 2ft 4 bulb T-5 HO fixture that can utilize 6700k and 3000k and put out 20,00 lumens with 4 bulbs.
This is the technology they say that enables them to do this:
Come to find out they have this new technology called PLL
Product Details:
Nominal Length = 20.7"
5,000 lumen output per bulb
2G11 four pin base
20,000 hour life expectancy
Have you ever heard of or seen this before?
It is basically a looped 2ft bulb that makes it into a 4 ft bulb. I am more interested in what the Pr0fessor had to say in the beginning about utilizing specific light spectrums to obtain ultimate results. I tried sending a PM, but the box quota is full, so I couldn't send the questions I had.
Can I do the same thing with just 2 ft bulbs, and which ones would I need and how would they be arrayed? I am only going to be growing 2 or 3 plants at most. Any advice would be most welcome.
Namaste,
Jeff
