I have been using a 400w MH w/a bulb that produces more red than normal MH bulbs.I think it an agro sun "gold",but really dont remember 4 sure.I know it 40.000 lumens.(my grow area is 3x3x8.5)=27.000 lumens is what i need.I'm using 5 T5s single 2 footers (3 blue 2 red)[email protected] lumens.
My question is,My plants are still vegging I have my mh on for 14 hours a day.My T-5s are on for 18 hours.MH is on for 5hrs.off for 3 hrs,Back on for 5.Off,again for 2hrs.Back on again for 4hrs.While my MH is off,will the lack of lumens harm my plants???????????????????(I DO THIS TO SAVE ELECTRICTY)
