help a new farmer with lighting!
well i was limited by my length and width so i figure id put them on the walls and rotate the plant. I didnt want to go with a hole bunch of cfls hanging over the top.
i dont want to create a bunch of heat either so im not sure if i should jus add another 4' t5 ho on another side along with the reflector and cfls. Or take out the reflector all together???
Do you think i will have good results???
I mean i turn them on and it looks like im peeking into heavens gates... its pretty dam bright.
Inside is flat white paint.
Two computer fans one 4" exaust, one 6" intake.
:jointsmile:xxxnick89xxx Reviewed by xxxnick89xxx on . help a new farmer with lighting! So my box is 1.5' x 1.5' x 4' and i have two t5 ho 6400k bulbs 4680 lumens a piece on either wall slanted. There is also a cheap $10 reflector with two CFLs one daylight one soft white 23w 1600 lumens a piece. The T5 Ho will be about 9" away at the start but figure when the tomato plant flowers it will be alot closer... Do you think it will be fine or should I mount another t5 on the back wall. Should I get rid of the reflector and add the T5 or is it important to keep light on the top of Rating: 5
