Hello! Greetings to you all, this is my first post here. 'Hope you are all doing well. Anyway, on to my question -
I just built two rooms (Hopefully pictures soon to follow), one for veg., one for bloom. In the veg./growth room I'm going to put this 2', 4 bulb T5:
New Wave T5 System - 2', 4 Bulb | BGH
Now, I have the option of getting 4 cool bulbs (6500K each) or 2 cool & 2 warm bulbs (3000K each). It states that cool is for growth, & warm is for flowering. Since all I want to do with them is growth, I would assume that getting 4 cool bulbs would be the best option. I would assume. But I've seen a lot of sources recommend using 2 cool & 2 warm even for the growth phase. It says that both cool & warm emit 2500 lumens each bulb. I'd really like to hear some of your opinions.
& Please forgive me if this has been asked before...I did quite a few searches in these forums & still didn't find the info I'm looking for.
