With recent set backs on the income front, I was planing on changing one of my 2x4 tent's set up from a 600W flowering chamber to a lower wattage vegetative area temporarily, so I can choose the best specimens to move to my flowering area (Plan on running 10 non sexed seeds)
My options are either a 4ft 4 bulb T5 (216W), a 4ft 8 bulb T5 (432W), or a 400W CMH. (If I could afford it I would just go with a 250W CMH, but I have to work with what I already have)
Would I run into a wall with vegetative growth if I used the 4 bulb T5 as opposed to the higher wattage options? I have seen first hand how well CMH bulbs preform in veg, but I have never tried using the T5's outside of mass seeding vegetables.
Does anyone here have any experience with using T5's for veg in a 2x4 area? If so any advice on that side of the subject would be greatly appreciated!
