Lighting for clones

[RFheavy]

I've been reading up on lights for clones and it looks like T5 is the way to go. I want to set my closet up with a fixture. Maybe a 2 ft, 2 bulb fixture. But if I could pick your brains for a second and get some enlightenment about the subject and some recommendations for fixtures and bulbs, I'd appreciate it.

You could probably get 8 or 10 clones to fit nicely under a 2 ft 2 bulb t5. Clones at the rooting point do not need much light, just enough to keep them alive. Once they root they go under normal grow lights. This t5 would be fine. A lot of people clone with t5.

A 2 foot t5 will light up a Rubbermaid tote ( big ). Attach it to the lid underside. Paint inside flat white. Will need raise an lower pots for best light.( block or something ). Cut airholes too. This mini veg room saves about a month.

hey RF I use a high domed tray and a 2 foot 4 bulb t5 ,I put as many clones under it as I can I lower my light right on top of the high dome(not touching) I spray three or four times a day with a clonex mixture . it takes about ten days for them to root then right into gallon pots to start there journey
