Expensive. I think the agromax is better.
well only if paying 2 bucks more for american made is expensive,in my world thats a small price to pay for freedom
bro i been running agromax 6500k, 10,000k,and 2700k in my t5's for about 5 years,the power veg is a full spectrum and yes it could also be used to flower.but looking at that bulb you like i would say its a recipe for herms.heres a quote from that dude who kinda sounds like a agromax rep talkin about his agro-tent lol.
"So this is what I can tell you about the latest offering from Agromax, the Pure UV T5 bulbs work really well but there’s a caveat; they’re not for beginners. What these bulbs achieve, in layman’s terms, is enhanced trichome production by means of stressing the plant and making it go into defense mode. Trichomes will literally ooze secondary metabolites because of this. However, these bulbs are so intense that if used by a novice without a recycling timer the chances of burning up the canopy are pretty high. As mentioned in the previous post, the best way to use these T5’s is by turning them on for 15 minutes every hour for about four hours (from “10am” – “2pm”), and leaving it at a stationary height of 36 inches above the canopy. This of course is not convenient for the majority of small time growers, so these bulbs are not for everyone."
i run 40%mh lamps in flower with my hps.but my mars 1600 does have ir built in and those flowers aint no better than the other plants. i think if it was me i would use one of those in a test tent on just a few plants before i tried it in my main room just based on that article and its ability to "stress" the plants.just be carefull with it is all im sayin.i could never use it in flower because im in there way too much,i would have to use sunblock to do my work haha.
