I use 4 T-12 tubes per shelf and recently found out that this was too much light for violets, although the plants are 8-12 inches from the tubes. My violets have done fine under this set up, but if it's not right, I don't want to do it. It just seems that 2 tubes is not enough to cover an entire shelf of plants from front to back. It feels like somebody is going to be starved for light!
Please chime in with your own experiences and suggestions. Also, I'd like to hear about how you light your streps since they require a tad more light than violets.
Thanks a bunch!
