My Drosera terrarium

[cbkhoon]

it is not the brand that matters.. you need to understand the spectrum of the tube, exmaple, 6500k, 10,000k, 14,000k & 20,000k....

For plant use, i suggest to use 6500k combined with 20,000k for fast growing and best colouring result.

for T5HO, 3feet will give 39watts, 4feet will give 54watts. If you really need to use 54w, the ballast is more expensive, if you use 39watts, you can use the normal T8/T10 E-ballast which is within RM10

I use T5HO for a year, all my plantlet are growed under this lightings, some of you may wonder why my viking grows so fast in 1 year time, the answer is clear .... T5HO rocks !!
