    0.8 x 1.2m lighting help

    I’ve got a 1.2 x 0.8m cupboard space and was thinking of using a 600w hps and a 400w led, will this be to much light for 4 plants or will it be ok as long as I control the heat, have a 6 inch fan and filter as well, the room is also about 2 meters high. Thanks

    Suited HPS Wattage for 120x120

    Hello, Should I go for 600W MH/HPS or 2x 400W MH/HPS. I was told 800 watt was too much for 120x120, but I still wanted to ask here. The bulb will be air cooled and the ballast, too. Both, the bulb and the ballast will have their own independent cooling system, so the temperature isn't a problem.

    400w HPS vs 3000w bestva LED

    Hi everyone, This will be my second grow. Last grow I used a 400w HPS cooltube, and received a free 3000w bestva LED. I'm wondering if the led would be worth using over the HPS? I know that it's not 3000 actual watts, but it's pretty close to the same actual wattage of the HPS. I'm in a 2x4x5...

    What yields more? Penetration vs Coverage

    If I have the ceiling height than is it better for yields to get a powerful HPS or COB led, or Blackdog type LED and penetrate deep into the canopy and grow taller plants or still go wide with the QB or bar style lights and grow wider but shallower plants??? (aka scrog, lollipopping, etc.) Thanks!
