-LED replacement bulbs for the T5s. I considered more qbs later, but these things push good wattage so maybe I can get some F-series strips to put in them or something?
-I still have air stones laying around, considering grabbing another air pump and putting a stone in each veg bucket too. because why not.

I've read about people putting strips into T5 fixtures reading that there are bulbs in T5 form which use LEDs?
Based on your root ball picture I would say you have plenty of air. Any concern about air stones changing pH and possibly raising temperature?

yeah i forgot that leds use DC and florescents use ac i guess thats what i was getting at lol. Ill probably just grab a few extra boards when I upgrade my flower tent. with the 4ft led bulbs ive seen it would cost over $200 to change them out and I could put 6 288 boards in there for that.

and i havent noticed it being overly loud. but it does move some air for its size.

As for airstone idk yet, ill probably let the go for this cycle and see how they do without them.

OH MAN!!
I forgot to update this post.
I chopped these down and cleared everything out about a month ago now.

Once I got through a bit of the finished product from their mothers i decided i didnt really like it and didnt want to waste money growing more of it.
I was very pleased with how the veg setup worked out and cant wait to use it again.

I am looking at buying some seeds from hazeman and will likely start my next crop up some time next month.
Going to drop the flower setup down to 6 sites and condense my lights a bit.

I'd highly reccomend you get away from these old school breeders and get some more modern genetics. You'll be happier. Even just Humboldt Seed Organization is top notch and you can get their gear like, fuckin anywhere.
But more so, maybe some dungeons vault, exotic genetics, sin city, or symbiotic. Lots of good shit out there.
Attitude sells exotic singles. They're regs,but you could get 4-5 strains, 2 of each. You're bound to find somethin!!

Thats a particular strain that i really really want that doesnt seem to come from anywhere else that ive seen. I want to get something i know I like that much before I start experimenting too much.

Passed that, i do need go recommendations on where to go from there.
I dont have the attention span to look through hundreds of pages of forums posts and dont know how to determine the "good" from the "bad"

You're gonna straight up drop a whole setup and spread out using only6 this time and put those lights closer?

Pretty much.
Basically just going to cut what i have in half and bring it into the center of the tent.
Im undecided if im going to leave all 16 boards in there or if im going to drop it to 3 per driver, but I plan to re-configure them to fit over the 6 sites.
Ill use the veg as is and drop 8-12 seeds then flower the best 6 or something. Itll also give me room for males if i use regular seeds ill just have to flip before I move them.

Mostly just a realization that i dont need that many right now and no point in spending more money on lights and electricity.
ill be able to add the extra sites back on later if I want to, but im just going to focus on doing 6 for now.
