Celene, I have switched from T-8 lights to T-5H lights. These T-5H lights (6 tubes/fixture) produce extremely bright light, about 4X what the T-8 fixtures produced. They are so bright that I had to move them a minimum of 2' away from my cattleya orchids, and cattleya love bright light. The lights were actually producing "sunburn" on some of my cattleya! They will/should give you plenty of lumens to keep your citrus going.

The reason it's so hard to lose weight when you get up in age is because your body and your fat have become good friends.
