Need some help with purchasing some T-5 veg lights

Hey guys

I'm going to be vegging some girls on a 3 tier shelf. Each tier has 2 feet of space between and I want to hang some T-5 lights from the bottom of each shelf and put 3 or 4 girls under them.

The shelf itself is 7 feet tall and 1 foot wide. I'm not sure if I should get the 4 foot long or the 3 footer. Not sure if they make 3' long T-5's tho.

I need to do this because of space issues.

What would be a good way to go in purchasing a decent setup? I would need 3 separate systems for each shelf. Not looking for real cheap but I would like to save a little $$.

Thanks :weed:

No T5 specialists in the house?

I guess I would need something to cover a 4 foot long by 1 foot wide shelf.

Anyone know what is good and what I would need? How many watts would I need to cover 4 plants on a 4' x 1' shelf?

I forgot about the fluorescent forum. I'll post there.

Hey thanks for an idea bro. This is what I was looking for. But I would have liked more info on the high bays and what I could use.

I did do some research, but unlike the asshole who replied below I was just looking for some ideas. Thanks :-o

I was going to give you a step by step process on how easily you can go fuck yourself, but I decided against it. I figure you have gone thru this process quite a bit in your life and wouldn't need any instructions :shock:

well seriously ur first question was how to go about purchasing the lights and i answered. your second question is answered in one of the stickies and could easily be found using rollitup search bar or google. correct me if im mistaken but i was under the impression was that we are supposed to search for an answer first before starting a new thread asking the same question people have asked a million times. i expect more coming from someone with as high a post count as you. now if you want to take it personally then fine i dont care. you arnt hurting my feelings. best of luck with your purchase but please so many good threads get buried because of all the repeat and unecesary questions.

That was an answer? A shithead who thinks they own the place answers questions like that. If you don't have a decent reply don't fucking reply douchebag.




your second question is answered in one of the stickies and could easily be found using rollitup search bar or google.
So what are you? The forum cop who goes around scolding people who ask questions you can easily answer. I wanted ideas asshole. I don't need a shithead like you coming into my thread to tell me to search google.


correct me if im mistaken but i was under the impression
The only thing you are under is my balls. Mistake #1


was that we are supposed to search for an answer first before starting a new thread asking the same question people have asked a million times.
I'll tell you once more to stop playing forum monitor. You are not good at it.

once again i expect more coming from someone with as high a post count as you.
Mistake #2. Stop looking at the numbers idiot. They don't tell the whole story.

now if you want to take it perdonally then fine idk, you arnt hurting my feelings.
I bet. This is why you came back for more. To be hurt and owned by me. Your name says it all.

best of luck with your purchase but please so many good thrwafs get buried because of all the repeat and unecesary questions.
GTFO of my thread noob before I hurt your feelings some more.
