Im not sure one 600 watt HPS light will give me a very good yeild with 5 plants. Thanks for the help and keep it coming.
dude, you can flower 5 plants, in 5 gallon containers under one 600W. i don't understand why you think you'll get better results with some other inferior lighting all around. take it from people who have EXPERIENCE! unless you have no other options, ditch the fluros and go HPS, 400W or better. you won't be disappointed.

headshake Reviewed by headshake on . Flowering with fluorescent tubes!?!? I have been using the search button but cannot find the results I'm looking for. Hope some people here can help. I am trying to find out who has had great success flowering with fluorescent tubes (t12's)??? What tubes did you use? How did you aquire the greatest results from the tubes? How close did you keep them to the ladies? Did you use any special nutes for flowering? (I heard Beastie Blooms works great?) Any info on the flowering stage with fluorescent tubes would be very helpful? Rating: 5
