Glad I found this thread. I planned on putting T12s on the sides of my closet for better complete lighting, so now I definitely will. I'd imagine it will help a lot because of how close the plants will be to the wall, preventing even more or the light from the top from getting down to the lower branches.
JaySin Reviewed by JaySin on . "side" lighting Hello! I just want to ask, - is it important that the sides of the plants get alot of light as well as the top? I have heard that just a light above the plants is all they need, but I have also heard, the more light the better. I am wanting to grow in a enclosed box, and during veg I want to put T5 2ft x4 bulbs on top and along the sides of the box, a couple of 4footers going vertical on the sides to keep the entire side of the plant lit up. Would this be worth it or a waste of Rating: 5
