I was wondering if anyone ever thought about using these fluorescent T5 HO tube during flowering mixed with 2700K and 6500K? I have a 12 light 45 inch fluorescent light setup I was thinking about using 2- 2200K actinic 4-6500K and 6-2700k during flowering. Any comments would be appreciated oh yeah the grow tent is 2ftx4ftx6 & 1/2 feet high.

Seriously, you are able to cram a single 12 bulb fixture in a 2 x 4 tent, or do you have 3 fixtures- the other 2 for side lighting?

My 8 bulb pretty much fills the space

MJ only needs ~10-15% maximum blue light during flower, so out of 12 bulbs, 2 at most evenly spaced at positions 4 & 8

Instead of 4 @ 6500s consider placing 2 with UVL Aquasuns adjacent to the 6500s. They look a lot like hps

There's a pretty extensive T5 Club thread here to wile away the hours

I bought 6 two bulb 4ft fixtures and mounted them on 3/8 plywood (painted and covered in mylar) they were 2 3/4 wide each one so no problem putting in 2x4 . all mount overhead.
