600w or 1000w?

like this bro...you will grow amazing shit with three 1000 watt lights...and with movers you will be beyond set.

Other than that...you really need to look at vertical grows if you wanna use 3 1000 watt bulbs...hang them in the middle and you will use every watt of that bulb. look into it. I do have to ask though....have you used a 600 before?

well...I cant get the pic to load..but you set the middle one up daiginally fron inside corner to outside corner of the rooms bend...you know what I mean? so it cuts the bend in half...it doesn't follow it.

No Honkey, I haven't. I used a 400w b4 and it sucked.

What do you mean. "vertical grows?" Is this a stupid question?
The air-cooled reflector is 21" x 21" x 10"h (Radiant Reflector) which leaves me with about 5 ft from the top of the pots to the reflector.

I understand what you mean by setting up one diagonally. Let me give you a better idea of my flower room.

It is "L" shaped, as I said b4. The long side is 10' x 4' and the short side of the "L" is another 4' x 3' or so, give or take a few inches. I was initially figuring two 1000w lights on the long side, spaced evenly apart and another light on the short table (4' x 3'). I could put one mover for the two lights on the long side and another mover for the light on the short side. Your opinion?

How far do you recommend the light should travel back and forth?
Why set one up diagonally, I have never used movers so I'm unclear about this.

Oh, you mean using like an umbrella reflector that the bulb hangs vertically? I have a 5000btu window A/C, will this and an extraction fan keep my temps around 75?
