id definetly go with the 4ft 4 bulb one tho if you have the option much more wattage and you could probably even flower two plants under it, thanks for the +rep much appreciated

so what about the Kelvin level. ive seen lower wattage blubs but with,say a 6700 k rating and visa-versa. isnt it the K (blue) that you'd be after for vegging. confused on wattage vs. Kelvin

thanks for the link..i think im going to switch out my t5s and start up a MH. i was trying to avoid the heat and cost on the HID but i think im going to get better results. the T5s are slow.so with the MH im going to want like a 10k Kelvin ( using a switchable 1k ballast )? thanks for any advice
