Hey guys i was thinking of getting into Quantum Boards and growing with them in a space of 6x12 ceiling height is around 7-8ft, i was looking at ChilLed and HLG, how many should i have for a space like that to maximize my potential of yield, and if in the future i decide to add in CO2 and an A/C, would 3 or 4 515W HLGs be enough or the ones from ChilLed?
im trying to get the highest umols and efficiency

i'd like to get over 2.2umols, i wouldnt mind going a bit overkill
i would consider building it as well as i do want a timed controller and i have two separate electricity outlets in my grow room, i could probably do 2500Watts max in the space if needed

4 hlg-550s would work well in that space. If you diy you could save some money.

Alright I'll probably go with That, and I could set it up with controllers like the ones from chilLed? It's just i don't want to be using these two mechanical timers I have in the plug atm because that limits me to only two plugs

I'm not sure about what chilled offers honestly. You will need to use a timer with our lights. The best thing to do is use a lighting controller. Maybe a Titan controls.
