T5 for yield but only if you train her well. Wide and flat to match the t5 shape evenly would blow away a 150 hps any day imo.

I have a 1 plant autoflower going right now.
She is in a waterfarm system.
I was wanting to know what light would be better for the plant.
I am looking at a 150 hps light or a t5 2ft x 6bulb.

a really catchy question this be!

the T5's have shitty penetration 8 inches at best

less on the 2ft tubes

the 150 HPS puts out more heat than light

bleed a little more get the 250 HPS does 2 plants grand

good luck

Anyone else notice we waited 4 months to answer? Btw I had the 150hps years ago and ditched.it after round one. Jist drop a couple hundred and get a cool tube 400 or something. Apollo ones will be fine for a good long while. Trust me on that.
