are the 4 footer's better then the two footers?
i have a small grow space and i wanna switch from cfls
are 2 footers good?
it's a hot summer and my lil room is getting to the upper 80's almost into the 90's with the lights on.
so it's time for change
 
i would think a 2ft 4 lamp would give better light distribution over a small area, but if u can afford the space go with a 4ft 8 bulb t5 things a beast and the plants love it, plus u can switch 4 bulbs on or off at a time so u can run 4 bulbs for your veg and all 8 for flower if you choose to use it to flower uses like 424 watts with all 8 bulbs goin but puts out rughly 40k lumens otherwise my moneys on the 2ft 4 bulb
