What up bro,
All depends on your rotation and how long you want to Veg them.
My situation is a little different because of my smaller footprint. T5s are great for seedlings and smaller plants but definitely not long term veg imo. Great light dont get me wrong.
I use my flower lights to Veg them (3500k) and transplant in finals 2 or 3 weeks before the flip.
This has greatly increase my yield using bigger lights to veg.
Alot of variables depending on your setup on what light you need.
Its all about timing and think thats the hardest part to nail down in my grow room, especially if they are regular seeds.
Im probably start planting my seeds 2 or 3 weeks before harvest,
Think its more about timing, you have enough lights to last a life time..lol
Cheers bro
Sorry i really didnt answer your question.

Then i would Veg under a stronger light and transplant them too in final pots. Give them a least 10/14 days in finals before changing the light schedule to flower.
They will be huge, but timing is the hardest part for me

Yes I have a 300w quadboard for late veg maybe I'll have to get my sp150's back and use them for early veg do you think my chill logic 100w would be OK for my seedlingsThen i would Veg under a stronger light and transplant them too in final pots.

The logic sounds pretty sound. Currently I am using my 92 watt Tasty Led's for all stages of veg. These lights have a dimmer switch, so I can run them with an extremely low footprint during the seedling stages and for cloning.
Been thinking about pulling the trigger on buying a light from our newest/newer sponsor WEEGrow.
At risk of being excommunicated from the family (it is ok I am busy with work, lol) Lush Lighting makes one hell of a veg. light.

Im a fan of lush, but my next investment going to be Mammoth 10 bar. Couple of my buddies have them, great light to bust out some flowers

These girls are really packing on the weight and the smells vary from sweet grapes to sweet baseball gum, or big league chew..lol
Supersoil
Probably going to take clones on the Veg plants when they get bigger. Really dont want to let go of this Glaze apricot gelato and Prayer Pupil
Hope everyone has a great Wednesday, Im going to dabble with some RSO that was made from Boptang trim, super strong

Also, Im using 1ml per gal of brix, increase it a little since ive been slacking, trying to hold that color as much as possible. She wont burn me again next round of seeds..lol
Supersoil is nice but that it pretty high Nitrogen, kinda want her to fade some more. Going to give her straight water grom here out.
RSO started kicking in
sorry for my ramble

That is one bad asseded light!Im a fan of lush, but my next investment going to be Mammoth 10 bar. Couple of my buddies have them, great light to bust out some flowers
5×5 flowering footprint bet could go 6×6.
My primary flower space is soon to be a 6×3 tent. Planning to run the Lush in that tent with a couple of my 92 watt COBs in support.
My old T-5 evades me so I may pick up another one for my nursery, which has been a dismal affair.
Hey Sparkey, super colas ya got growing there! Dang!

That sounds like a plan Farmer. I like adding those cobs also. Should be a nice yield bro. How many plants you plan running?
Stay warm bro, it got up in the 60s yesterday. I should never complain about the cold..lol..congrats again on POTM bro.
Damn bro, thats crazy. Hope you and family stay safe in that type of weather.Wow bro! Those are super freaking frosty!!
yeah we’re in a bit of a cold snap right now.
Thanks Stone. Good seeing you bro. Yeah, they are super dense too. Hope to yield 18 to 22 zips out of the 3 plants that are in 10gal, guess thats about average. Trying to get up to @Van Stank ounce per gallon..still working on it..lolHey Sparkey, super colas ya got growing there! Dang!
Good seeing you stone
