    I am using 5X54W T5HO with 97% effective reflectors and ATI bulbs. All of my rics are mounted under ledges or vertically. Rics are found growing vertically about 98% of the time from what I read. I melted mine when they were kept horizontal. Yumas are specially sensitive they need to be placed in full shade to start.

    Thanks, I didn't know that either until I have a few melt and detatch. Did some extra research and finally found the info. I haven't had problems with any that have shipped and arrived healthy since.
