Light positioning


Recommended Posts

I have 6 54W 4ft long T5 HO Lights. My grow space is a little under 4ft wide so i cant have the lights flush with the top of the closet.

 

should i have the lights vertically (3 on each side of the plants)?

or have the lights on an angle above the plants?

 

i attached a diagram :scratchin: it was fun to draw, yeah im a bit stoned....

You are going to need to add a bit more light anyway so I would mount them vertically and get a couple of high output compact fluorescents (or 6 - 10 20w ones) to hang over the plants, a HID is really a much better investment when it comes to yield per watt though.
