Hey Strocat, I have 6 plants flowering under the 600. The front two are clones from previous grow, and the rest are 12/12 from seed. My space is a 3x3x4, all plants are around 2 feet tall. Its an experiment, I cant vouch for the quality or density of the buds yet because this is my first grow with this light. But as you can see they all are on schedule. I'm impressed with the results so far!!

You can check out my previous grows that I posted here. I'm yeilding over 4oz per plant per grow in soil. I do one plant, in a 3.5 gallon bucket, one LED...three months later boom! I'm sure as people have pointed out, that I could have gotten 5 or 6 ozs with a super high end LED...but I paid $69.99 with free shipping and have gotten 2 very good crops of it

thats kicks ass brother..
thats like me.. my last grow was an autoflower in 3.5 gallons of literally the cheapest organic potting soil lowes had for sale and one single trans siberian autoflower under a 180 watt (93 actual watt) ufo led I got a dry harvest weight of 88.3 grams almost a QP off 1 autoflower and a cheap-o shit brand 93 watt led ufo light.
Now that I'm using a mars 300 and that 180 in combination I'm sure i can do better. This blue mystic im about to harvest wont do anywhere near that, the yield of her isnt gonna be that fantastic at all.. she is growing in miracle gro seed starting mix 3.25 gallons of it. it was some leftover soil i had laying around. I actually like the miracle gro seed starting mix for a whole grow. you do have to water late in flower every 2 days.. It is the most airy/lightest/fast draining soil ive ever seen.. hell its ment to start seeds so i get it.
My friend gave my 7 gallons of ocean forest though so for my next grow ill have plent of good soil to start in solo cup.. pot up to 1 gallon then have enough left over to fill 5 gallon smart pot.
I have a couple of choices of what to do next.
Autos I have : Speed Seeds Diesel Auto - Auto Seeds Purple Cheese Auto
Fem Photoperiod- Reserva Privada OG #18 - Barneys Farm Purple Ayahuasca - Simply Female Honey Haze.
Prob gonna do the Auto Seeds Purple Cheese .. They sent a 3 pack to me for free because they were so impressed that I got 88.3 grams off their transiberian strain.
Heres That Blue Mystic Today is day 56 of flowering.. As you can see she has had a tough life.... vegged too long.. topped too many times with a scrog net.. had to tie her up to keep her from leaning/breaking branches. This grow has been a pain in the ass. I cant wait to just harvest her and start another seed.

I'll get better nug shot pics tomorrow. the nugs are frosty as all hell dont get me wrong she has just been a pain to grow I vegged wayy too long as I said too though and I hurt my yield because I was having to veg her next to an autoflower and couldnt switch timer to 12/12 when i wanted. she ended up basically vegging till it couldnt anymore in 3.5 gallons of soil then switched to 12/12 .. I know root basically stop growing in flower but even a 1/2 gallon extra soil when i switched to 12/12 woulda helped alot.
I only have one room not 2 so I have to veg/flower in same area... this next round I'll start 2 plants at same time that way I can veg 40 or so days and flip to flower at same time.. I think I'll do a purple cheese auto and nyc diesel auto together this next round.

I'm in a similar situation. Started beans at different times, added a clone later etc. Trying to slow down bigger or speed up smaller ones, any suggestions? Got a Mars300 & a Meizhi Reflector 450.

Yeah you could do that but that I'd just try another 300 for now. If you can buy 2 600s & another 300 I'd think you might be better off building a COB setup with that $.

i alreadu have 2x mars 300 so what i should i do cause i want to use them for flowering too ? add a mars 600 or higher ?

I'm using my mars 300 in flower. Should be fine. For 4x4 Maybe try just 1 600. Or honestly if I were you & have the $/space, I'd throw those 2 300s in a 2x4 for veg & build/buy a COB light setup for your 4x4 for flower. Last I checked good 5 cob lights would run about 500-600, but even 2 600s at the way lower price would do ok. You really have to look at par & coverage. Now some of the crappy LED companies do exaggerate or even straight up loe about their numbers but mars is good. Not the highest grade claims but still I have 1 for a reason.
Assuming like everyone you're just trying to fill/use your space, the 4x4 you mentioned but then you mention the 4x6? What's your goal? Aside from as al2ays, a nice harvest. What fo you have to work with here?

Mars hydro 300 calls for no longer than 18 hours before giving it a rest. Anything over that is asking for heat failure on a driver. That's why you hear about people with half their light out. They most likely ran it for longer than recommended without a break for cool down
