Thanks alot Drudown11, I really love the T5's for that very reason. Nothing but a good experience so far, and my last grow with the same ballast was fairly successful as well in my opinion. For the actual cost of the lights and the ballast, power consumption, and especially heat, (which I have a particular issue with because the room I'm growing in has no ventilation whatsoever, shy of just opening up the door to the room) its been working out well for me.

Here are my week 7 pics taken yesterday...Gaining a small amount of weight in my estimation...

Blue Widow/T5/E&F Well everybody, its been just about a year since I've grown last but I've made some modifications to my setup, I think its working out well. I'm still not using R/O water because the filter I finally got the money to purchase is on back-order for another month. My tap water sits at least 300PPM at any point in time so I've been using half strength nutes. My last grow I finished never going over 3/4 strength and I could probably bump it up here in another week which I will probably do. I Rating: 5
