Def can't flower with t5's and expect a decent yield... couple oz's maybe.Weak light. T5's are for veg, use hps for flower.

Thanks rmoltisT5s can work wonderful for flower.
Here are my flowering ladies under t5 lighting.

Your t5 fixture is no slouch.
But you need to keep it 2-3" above the canopy for best results.
You will also want to train your girls more with a longer veg.
With t5 lighting you want a nice even canopy with many tops. That way you will focus most of the plant growth up top where the best light is.
This will help you with size and yield.
t5 lighting makes better flowers than people expect.
You Just need practice that's all :)
Thanks rmoltis
I was going to bring out that fact but didn't want to sound argumentative being fairly newly active here
Thanks, , I'm laughing a little bit I wasn't the original poster but I'll accept the comment and ditto it to Kushwrldwide (OP)

Your absolutely right they can work. And your quality is top notch. But Your style is very time consuming. It's all perspective. To be as efficient as possible hps wins hands down everytime.T5s can work wonderful for flower.

I can get that same growth the first two weeks of bloom cutting out a month of veg time.;)
But there's also lots more pieces that are at play like medium, mineral or organic , foilars, room variables etc.
These were flipped to bloom on 3/15 and everything was under the net. View attachment 682362View attachment 682363View attachment 682364View attachment 682365
That's what makes this plant so fun to grow and be part of. There is many ways to do it with success :smoking:Those are good points yes and I agree completely.
Every different light source has different quirks.
We each must weigh our options carefully and pick what will work best for each of our situations.
that beast clon vegged for 23 days from the day she was placed in soil until the day she was flipped.

They're the bulbs that came with the fixtureYou need to keep those T5's very close all of the time,within 2" of the bulbs with a small
fan blowing between the bulbs and the plants makes a huge difference.
Are those bloom bulbs in the fixture currently? They look really white.
Yea you need a little more light intensity. Drop a 315cmh in there you'll be very happy[/QUOTE
Along side of the t5s or just the 315cmh?
Idk about angry, but they're autoflowerThat's what I was thinking.. doesn't look like they were vegged much.. almost looks like an angry autoflower strain
