    A 150w of cfl and/or t5 bulbs for 24/0? or

    B lec315 for 12/12?

    The only significant difference would be the t5- (assuming there are 4@54w)- would give 20% more total light/day than the other two.

    The problem however, is that T5 yield about .25g/w and the LEC 315 would be around 1g/w of light- yield so the LEC 315 would be best based upon this factor alone.
    It's all bullshit - until you smoke it!

      Thanks pharma! The kind of answer I was hoping for, now of course I just finished a joint of 9lbs hammer, so let me ponder all that and get back to ya!

      Also in the lec configuration there'd be a lec almost directly above and side lighting from the other 2 lecs. Stupid joint...

    24 hrs. Of all the cfls and t5 you can gather...

    When autos are concerned...the number of hours off light is key...backed with watts...

    ??? I agree with you all and you all seem to agree with each other I thought...Just forgot to give weed pharma ALL data 😅😅😅 looks like continuous light is best, I'll go with that, gonna deck them with cfls on the sides and t5 above! 24/7
