My home depot doesn't have High Output t5 at all. They do have 14watt t5s. They run about 10 bucks. I am going to use for vegging.

I was looking at it and it says "full spectrum" I used T5 & 12... the T5's I have both blue and red bulbs and switch.. the t12's are full spect... htg supply has them at about the same ^60 price and you get red bulbs for flower..approx $20. each...
This was 1st T usage and I'm impressed..... Luck

I hang two types T 5 & 12.. sorry crap pics..

I went to the makers web page and looks like the bulbs are both good for vegging both are 400-480 nm(nanometers). Is this right or am I wrong on the ratings for vegging?..

This is what I use and it does a pretty good job of growing some nice bushy plants. I wouldn't recommend growing over about 3 feet with it though. You can mix and match grow and bloom bulbs as well so when you start flowering all you have to do is swap the bulbs and you don't have to move anything.
