Hey guys just wondering if this idea will work or if it will fail... I was going to setup a 10x5x7 LA Garden tent in my basement. I am going to use 2 x Meizhi 1200w LED grow lights (total 2400w). and also throw in another 2 x Viparspectra Dimmable Series PAR450 450w LED lights (900w total). So my total wattage be 3300w of LED lighting. I figure spreading the light out evenly across the tent will be beneficial for plants. I am then going to have two oscillating fans circulating air around grow room. Adding a Vortex S-line 347 CFM exhaust fan with carbon filter (ducting attached to filter grow room air out the window) for outtake. Going to be using passive air intake. I will be building a 3.5 feet x 8 foot scrog in the tent. I will be growing 12 plants in 5 gallon pots.. Still have not chosen strains. I am going for yield. I will be growing in foxfarm ocean forest soil with Fox farm nutes. My water will be R/O and i will be adding cal/mag to each feeding. I want to veg for 2 months maximum. Can someone tell me on how to improve this setup or any ideas would be nice thank you. Also maybe what will i be looking at for yield if i fill the scrog screen?

Is that real watts or "led watts"?

LED watts the Meizhi runs at about 560w each and the Viparspectra runs at about 210w each. so total 1540w of true watts and 3300 of led watts.

Ok led watts are not real so you have 1540w that will do ok over a 3.5x8. but you said your going for yield why such a small scrog? It would be best to fill the whole tent and use more effecient led if you want to max yield. 2 months veg is crazy long you won't yield enough to make up for a veg time that long

I would do 24 plants 2-3 week veg if you didn't buy those lights yet I wouldn't wast your money if you don't get top shelf led your better off with cmh

1 1k HPS can yield 3lbs if you know what youre doing. Especially with 12 plants lol. you might want to consider HPS if you dont know much about LED. I've been doing HPS/MH for 7 years now and im trying to learn LED. wont switch til im 1000% positive what route im going.
