pimp it out Sleepy!! How much did you pay for those bad boys if you don't mind me asking? For http://www.justn-tyme.com/ some super cheap T5 solutions check it out homie!!! They sell these T5 units that don't need a bulky oversized ballast like the "Tek Light" fixtures.....this way the plants can grow right up and around the bulb itself and should rock!!!!

lemme know what you think if you can find these new T5 lights on their web site.....
