We are getting ready to veg and have been considering trying a new light, but want to know if it will be worth it. This last time we vegged with a 1000w hps, 18/6 for 2 weeks from clone. In that span of 2 weeks, id say they grew about 8" or so. I know HIDs are not best for veg, but because of the weird shape space i grow in we can only fit one 48" 8 bulb t5 fixture. Will that be enough light for a space approx. 14sq ft? Also, are there any negatives for using these through veg, such as having to veg longer? Also, i need another balast and was thinking about getting a switchable to run a MH, what about that idea since I have to buy a balast anyways. Keep in mind too PG&E is pretty expensive here. Thanks.
