Hello poker2,

That 2' fixture is a NO (normal output) fixture, the bulbs are 14 watts each.

You want a HO (high output) fixtures that would use 2' 24 watt bulbs.

Or if you want really crazy light output, build your own floro fixture with end caps etc, and use an IceCap electronic ballast and get 40 watts per 2' tube.

A two light T5 HO is good for clones, seedlings and veg.
Flowering you would need a little more light, plus 3000k bulbs.

Hope this helps you.
OM
oldmac Reviewed by oldmac on . Are these lights okay for veg? flower? Here is a link to exactly what I have: Lithonia Lighting - 24 In. Fluorescent Mini T5 Double Strip - MN S5 2 14 LP M6 - Home Depot Canada I have no clue how much k's or watt's it is. Maybe someone can help me find that out. And are they good for seedlings? veg? flowering? Would I need stronger lights in the future? Rating: 5
