Hey, money isnt a huge issue for me right now im just trying to find something that works,i have a sodium bulb for my flowering closet. Which i know will work fine, but im not sure about my veg lighting i just purchased a 48 in floro tube bulb and i was wondering if that would take my plant through a healthy veg growth. It produces 1400 lumens and i have it in a small space covered in mylar. Thanks for your input man.
