Running 4 four foot 2700's and 2 6500's in the 6 bulb fixture. 2 two foot 6500's on the side light. I wanted 2700's for the sides but the grow shop I went to only had 6500's in two foot. Hmmmm.....should I run all 6 of the 4 foot fixture at 2700? I have the bulbs.
OMB Reviewed by OMB on . Will 150w HPS outperform 372w of T5HO? Well, I'm going to Find out! Only really applies to me and my particular grow, but a worthy effort anyway. A couple day's ago I put two under the T5's, and two under the HPS. I think the HPS at 150w is about 18,000 Lumen?...and the T5's are pushing 35,000 Lumen. I will throw a couple pics up when the "wakeup" tonight, should be interesting anyway. Predictions? Rating: 5
