Never used t-5 lamps, don't know their intensity or what their capable of doing. Added CFL's in the 230k range would help, I'm sure.
Those look great!
As sort of a rule of thumb I go by is- they'll pretty much triple in size (or more, depending on strain characteristics) after flipped. May keep that in mind.
I use 400hps (for flower), and used to veg for 3 wks ans flipped them and they wouldn't get too big for my light to cover thru flower. But usally, if I let one go for 4 wks, then the lower buds didn't really get enough light.
Now I start clones 12/12 at transplant. They stay very compact, covered well by the light- top to bottom, and I can do 1/2 dozen, or more at a time, in the size same area .
