if you were 4ft, they will break... 8ft, speads out the heat at 81* checked with a laser temp gun .
water (juice is 71*-75*) room temp..

also have a couple trays of water in there for humidity. This is my 3rd run, still dialing it in

The 'T' in the tag of a fluo designates the width of the tube.....each 'T' is an 1/8 of an inch.

So a T12 is 1.5 inches, a T8 is an inch, etc etc......

Points for originality, but it seems a bit inconvenient to have all those tubes in the way...

Do you have to extract your plant from the bulbs in order to work with it?

all those tubes in the way...????? Let there be light.... :muahaha:


i keep addin tubes, as the plants grow, using the tube, to either bend over, hold a side branch down.. so that I never have a shaded area.

tubes are a single pin, very easy to work with

only things i do is watch the light cycle and pour tap water on them. this round, i am using Gradma's Molasses

The plants stay til the party is over/ no need to work with them

Its like a Fluro Scrog, Never seen it done like this. Have you grown out a full crop yet like that? Do you switch to a HID during flowering. this is very interesting.

How long did that take you to grow with those Fluro's. I use T5's and have good success. Im still amazed at how you water. Good job with those plants.
