t5 grow bulbs/full spetrum or not

[dnlfacundo]

wuz up yall,im needing some information on these t5 tube spetrums and which ones i should get.I am thinking of buying a 2 foot 8 bulb t5 with either half blue and half red bulbs but im not too sure.I need to know if this half and half full spetrum lighting will give better results such as yeild per each plant.Or should i just go all blue for veg then go all red for flowering?Ive heard that full spetrum are what plants require but im not sure becuase if i was useing all red won't that give all the plants better buds.


p.s.the system ill be useing is 8 bulbs 24 watts each,2000 lumens but i want to go 54 watts,5000 lumens.Can any t5 system be switched to these 54w bulbs or just certain ones.

I think the 2ft HO T5 only come in 24w. You have to go 4ft tubes to get the 54w HO bulbs.

Use all blue for veg and a mix for fruiting.

I'm in the process of trying 2 sets of these t5's

I ordered them with the 3000k bulbs. I'm between cycles right now. Got to wait for the clones to get big enough to move into the flower room.
