Indirect lighting?
    #23557852 - 08/19/16 06:37 PM (7 years, 5 months ago)

Hey guys, just curious if some of you more experienced members could tell me if this is adequate indirect light? I needed to rearrange my setup because my T5 was warming up my mono overtime too much.

They're both 6500k tubes, they've worked great for me in the past, but I will definitely take your advice! Thanks for your input guys!

One is a 6400k 125w grow light. The one on its side is a 6500k T5

The room it's in also doesn't have an overhead light. It actually doesn't look as blinding in person. But regardless I'm sure you guys are right.

I have fruited with many different lights over the years. Sunlight is by far the best light you can use. With that being said, so long as you're not overheating your grow, you will never see adverse affects from your lighting being too intense.

nice man well ime a 32 watt cfl is sufficent to light a large closet, no need to use tubes, but if you got em it couldn't hurt. I just like to keep the electric bill down haha

So a 12" under cabinet fleuro light is adequate for a 4 tier gh? Considering the use of semi transparent plastic? It's on the side of my 4' gh

Thanks for your input, I'll move them away so they don't heat up my FC anymore for the time being but will consider better lighting for the future.

Thanks again everyone.
