yes it will cover it fine. I had an 8x8 with 4x 1000 watts in it and it did great. My concern would be the weight of those Raptor hoods. They are very heavy, and most of those tents aren't strong enough to hold em'. My 8x8 wasn't. That's one of the reasons I pulled my tent down. I wanted to to get 2 Raptors at a time till I got all 6 I want, but like I said, the tent wouldn't hold the weight. Your 10x10 might be a stronger frame than my 8x8 IDK, but it's something to look into. Good luck!

ive got a 6x4 space and one 1000 and a big ass hood is giving me bangin results. all the corners are lit perfectly. a 1000 will light a 5x5 space even with a shitty reflector. lol. but i would spend the money on the good hoods. remember u get what u pay for.

that tent should hold the hoods no problem. two 8 inch fans should vent 4 1000s no problem or one big ass one. aq 10x10. a lot of plants. lmao. i have 3 or 4 big and 8 medium and 5 small plants packed in a 6x4 probably gonna run out of room but its my fault for not planning ahead. lol. u can pack a shit ton more than me. 3 or 4 good sized plants per 1000 i would say. or 20-25 one gallon pots per light if u go from clones with a two or tree week veg.

u can get about a pound out of 25 clones in one galloon pots if u dont screw up. lol.

I've tried lots of little ones, and less bigger ones, and the bigger plants do better for me. I run everything in 10s now. Or, I use a shared bed. My 8x8 I ran like 9-12 plants per light and did pretty good...pound a light...not great, not bad. I'm getting over a pound a light now running 4-6 10 gallon plants and veg em' up some first. Too many plants overcrowded can cause problems with mildew and bugs and stuff.
