View attachment 3289591 View attachment 3289592 Id say throw them all up more of the 65,64,55 with a few 27 and t5 and reverse spectrum for flower. with what
you have should definately get good results. This is what i have to work with until my next grow. I really invy alot of growers set ups. But I have (13)( 23w 2700k bulbs) (1) (26w 2700k bulb) (2)(45w 5500k bulbs) (2) (85w 5500k bulbs) and (1) (125w 2700k bulb).
im a HID man myself. but got a t5 55w gave to me so i was going to do a comparison grow. with same strain.

yes keep them mixed during veg. and flower. if you use the t5 and side lights now in veg. the plant will have less stretch. also have you heard people on here dripping lights on plants. thats because they start hanging different lights up in middle of a grow.just trying to save you a big headache later.
They seem to be doing pretty good as far as stretch they're almost 4 weeks old and only about 6 inches tall And know what is dripping lights

Sounds like you have it all figured out

I like the mixed spectrum during flower, it'll allow for the most light absorption which will allow your plant to make more energy. For veg I only use 6500k because i have height restrictions so running only those help keep it bushy
Well I am running a mixed spectrum right now but I just put the 55 watt 2700k on last night. I will watch it the next couple days and see if it starts stretching

Well all together once I start flowering with the lights I have right now I will be pushing almost 800 watts on my four plants

Damn no wonder your plant is looking so good, that's about 700 watts if my mental math is correct. You must have great ventilation if heat isn't an issue
Im a living witness that heat is not an issue. My remedy is this: My tent is next to my window. I have an doubke exhaust fan to blow cool air mixed with heat into the tent cooling the tent. Two 6" clip fans one blows between lights and tops. The other one on the 125watter and open tent and sometimes i close it half way. as you can see.

Yeah heat hasn't been a problem for me I have a 6 inch Extraction fan sucking air out of the room with a intake hole at the bottom of my closet. Having fresh air sucked into the room. And a 12 inch oscillating fan blowing directly on my lights and plants and I can put my hand directly on my light and it's been running for 3 weeks
