I have been wondering about that too, they look and seem like a good idea. And if you could get them with decent wattages, as well as the right color spectrum I don't see why it wouldn't work well. Who knows, maybe we will see some good responses.
So, do you have any experience or knowledge to share on the subject? They seem like a good idea assuming you can get them in decent wattages, and spectrum. Covers a nice area ya know.
I had one for a few days, but it was to loud, I'd hear it when I went to bed to I took it out. Mine was a 30W I think, I don't think it would have done much.
these do not produce enough light intensity to do any good...you will also run into problems trying to mount something like this....if you must use flourocents them stick to t5 straight bulbs for your vegging until you can get some hid lighting for flowering....
how bout a link to the thing we are talking about instead,,,,
this bulb debate comes in again like above just stop it
"some people think the cucumber tastes better pickeled....."
wait you mean put the plant in the middle of a circular tube flouro then right?
if that's the case you gotta be careful of burning the leaves when they touch the bulb so would be more work than it is worth
