I veg under T5's on the veg side but when i transplant to the flower side under the screen I run MH conversion bulbs in my digital ballasts. After I get the screen filled up (about a weeks time) and switch to flower I swap out to HPS bulbs. What is the total wattage of T5 bank? If it is greater than 400watts I would just keep vegging under that. If it is almost equal to 400 I would also keep using the T5's. Unless your all of your T5 bulbs add up to way less than 400 watts I would go ahead and keep using them rather than the MH.Thanks for taking the time to enpart your knowledge. All of the plants in the pots are master kush, but I am germinating bubblelious and blackjack for the other half of the table. I can't remember what lights do you veg with? I just purchased the fluorescent fixture (Sunleaves Pioneer IV 19,440 lumens.)and don't know how long to use it before switching over to 400w MH or if I even need too.
Update: The SSH should be ready to go into jars later today. I'll post the final numbers as soon as I get them.
