I found this site looking around for some t5 lights.
Im tryina get a good handle on all the things I need to buy.
u see I havent actually started a growop but I plan to next year
and Iam just trying to get a good headstart (savin up, knowing what I need to buy etc.) and research as much as I can about growing so I know whats what.

I was just wondering if this t5 setup would do for a 6 plant growop. or do I need a bigger setup???

Well you see there lies th problem with flouros.

a.) they are nearly as effective at spreading light as HID lights, in otherwords you can only fit as many plants under them as the fixture is big, the reason I say no to your proposal is simply because it is only 2 feet long and 8 inches wides.

I would barely fit two plants under that light, maybe 4 if you did no VEG time.

But It kinda sucks using flouros without alot of them.

But to me you talking about $76 on a completely inadaquate light, when you spend $119.95 on a BOMB ass one that is gnna get you dense fatty nugs.

Look it really is simple, people can say all day flouros and CFL will grow pot, Im not arguing that, Im arguing that the biggest yeilds and most potent marijuana will only come from HID lighted situatuions.

You buy cheap, you buy twice.

Put the best in, get the best out.

Its that simple, and picking up your first 400 watt HID light is the way to go.
