I currently have a 8x10 flower room with two 1000 watt lights in xxxl hoods going down the center and thats not enough for the space so i was pondering four 600 watt lights or the 1000's on a light mover. I cant run four 1000's right now so its between the two options i have listed. Personally i'm leaning towards the four 600's cause it would only be 400 watts more and i think it would be superior over the other on a light mover.....thoughts?

g'day MD,

4 x 600w on light mover to cover the extra 2 foot.
600w= 4 x 4 ft therefore 4 x 600w only covers 8 x 8 ft so a light rail would cover 8 x 10 :weed::leaf:

Thank you verticlegrow,I don't think I would hassle with the expense of buying and installing a light mover to cover a couple feet. My main concern is enough lumens and getting tight buds,without getting into a big debate, are you 600 watt guys getting good tight nugs ?

Im only in week 4 of my first flower with hps but my buds are filling in nicely and getting dense and frosty. I am expecting a good harvest and it should get better as i learn hps. Watt for watt 600w hps is the best bang and most efficient.
