welcome Kwsmoke, I hope you enjoy it! I am looking forward to posting some really cool pics of the buds soon.
The lumen chart shown is not applicable to floros. It is for HPS. Your big challenge will be flowering large plants with floros. They do not have good light penetration so they require the leaves be pretty close to the bulb's surface. Remember that light intensity falls with the distance squared. With the sun, it is not important since 93 million miles versus 93 million miles and 4 feet are essentially the same. But if some of the plant is 4 inches away while other part's are 3 feet away, the light intensity difference is extreme. The floros exacerbate the intensity problem since the light from them is spread out over a large surface so the intensity is already rather diffuse.
So, floros are great for getting plants started but High Intensity lighting (HIDs) like HPS or MH lamps are more frequently used in the flowering period.

great info Munki,thanks.....I guess we will just have to see what happens useing these t-5 light panels for the complete grow and harvest. I remember the old inverse square law from when I used to do radiography on the slope,
"double the distance, quarter the dose". ...or light intensity in this case.

Right. That is what gets ya in an indoor grow. So, when growing indoor, it is better to keep the plants small or control how they are exposed to your light source. For your equipment, you really should consider using Screen of Green (ScrOG). Look to my grow for what it can look like. It was originally developed to flower with floros like yours.

ill check it out Munki thanks 
Hey man
Ladies are looking good
You've some got great growers following this grow. They'll give you great advise. I doing my first grow so take my word for it. I didn't see if you told us how much room you have to grow up. If it's limited follow munki's advise. He is the master in taking advantage of available space. You'll also get a massive yield.
Your on your way to some good buds
I'll be looking in to learn too.
I wish you a great grow.

Thanks for checking in to my grow....this is my first grow as well ,and so far has really been a lot of fun! I agree with you on Munki's SCROG its amazing but unfortunatly I do not have the room yet for that,but as soon as i do i would consider doing that. I think I will start the 12/12 blooming this sunday because i can't wait any longer,and I think they will get too big and bushy for my light set up. More pictures to come when they start blooming. In the mean time I will continue to give the open sesame fertilizer every other watering, oh that reminds me, I have to water a lot more often now, they are really starting to suck it up! Later,HH

I'm with PA, those babies are going to rocket up.
I dont know about 8 feet, but they're gonna be Large Marge for sure.
It's prolly way too late for LST, but scrog MIGHT just work.
