yes you can, and will see significant results. the light should be far enough from the canopy that placing your hand under it at canopy level, can be left there for any length of time with out discomfort.

sheeeit bro use both of those lights, unless you need the t5 for upcoming veg plants. I've seen decent results with 150 hps before, nice fat nugs and such, bend the plant down or tie it down so most of the plant is at the same light level, you can get that 150 hps a foot away, or closer depending on the reflector, and put the t5 1-4 inches away.

i grew with a 150 and got 4.5 oz dried, sour d. kept the light 8-12 inches from the top. upgraded to a 400 after. 150 is a great starter light and is cheap and easy to find.

I bet the same because he would be a ganja guru to have done this with a light that cant penetrate past 6-8 inches so how the hell he got 4.5 oz dried bud..Lmao
I use a 150 hps for veg and flower with 2x400 hps now...

Now you know and i know that is not a 150 hps in that tent nor did it grow those plants..Lmao..You can tell the difference because a 150 will not make the room bright enough.Trust me i use one for veg...Good try tho...
 
Anyone who grows and knows about lights would know this was not grown from a 150 hps...


You look like you dont even know when to harvest so i highly doubt you did that with a 150 hps alone...Like i said Good try..
