Right now on my plant shelves I am using 48" shop lights with T12 cool whites.
I have two fixtures per shelve (4 bulbs).
I am thinking of adding switching lights to T8's for a brighter light.
The fixtures are about 8 inches from the bulb to the plant tops.
Would you stick with the T12 and switch out to T8s?
(I was ruling out T5 because of the cost.)
I am currently growing:
VFTs
Drosera
Pinguicula
Helimphora
Cephalotus
Nepenthes (mostly highland)
Thoughts?
