Hey guys, I'm trying to light a 4x4x8 tent. I've been doing a lot of research and it's blowing my mind lol... I came down to 3 or 4 options.. First was 2 platinum p 600 lights, top shelf lights duolux 600, there were 3 different amare lights I was thinking about, 2 of the pro 4 or pro 3 and the se 450 and finally 1 of these timber grow lights pre-built

Or


http://timbergrowlights.com/600-watt-cree-cxb3590-4x4-framework/

They're both 600w and both have 12 cobs, only difference is the bulb, 1 is a cree Cxb 3590 and 1 is a citizen clu048.
I've read a lot of good things about these timber lights and I've also heard good things about the other options. This is a big purchase and trying to get my best option with the best coverage. I plan on using this light for vegging and bloom cycle. Any and all advice from people that actually use or are knowledgeable in any or all of the lights mentioned would be greatly appreciated. One last question about the timber lights. How do you know how high to adjust the dimmer?

@Budsie Why don't you try a combination of BOTH Cree AND Citizen COBs in one fixture? You do realize that with Timber you can pretty much customize the emitters any way you want...right?

For example: Put 4 Citizens one in each corner...put some Osram reds in between the remaining Crees....AND you can make the color temps anything that these companies offer, too...

Bro..... There seems to be so much bs marketing for these LEDs lights...... It's craziness. That's why I'm trying to get opinions from actual users...

900? That's making 1200ppfd in a 4.5'x4.5' area..... 600w vero would be perfect. Idk with the 900w you can always dim down a little if you're not using co2.

When you say the vero would be perfect, what is the difference between the two? Vero? Cree?
