Light Help

Hey guys! So I have a 2’x2’x4’ wood box interior painted white that I’m growing in. Still trying to figure out ventilation but waiting until after I get lights figured out, I have some ideas already.
I currently have one 32w Feit electric 3spectrum grow light I got from Home Depot for like 70 bucks. https://www.feit.com/products/grow-lights/adjustable-3-color-spectrum-dual-2ft-led-grow-light/
I know I need more light, so my question is should I get another one of those (making the total wattage 64) or should I get the Mars Hydro ts1000(https://www.amazon.com/MARS-HYDRO-Thermometer-Hygrometer-Marshydro/dp/B07PLY1WKK
)and return the light I have? Prices would be the same as getting another Feit light after returning so I’m REALLY leaning towards the MS ts1000
Advice is welcome thanks y’all

If those are your only 2 options I think you will be better off with the mars ts1000

I’m trying not to spend over $150 on a light if I can. I don’t know anything about wiring or electrics, or at least no where near enough to wire one myself

I am here to introduce our newest light. Maybe you will be interested.O(∩_∩)O~

#TS1000: Veg 3'x3', flower 2.5'x2.5'
Here are the main features for the #ts1000 :

1) Quantum board design with the newest SMD tech. More durable and longer lifespan.
2) The light is white color and full spectrum. More similar to sunlight.
3) 30% higher light efficiency than the purple LED. Save 30% power bill.
4) PPE is 2.15 to 2.57umol/J. The plant can grow bigger and faster.
5) Max yield up to 2.5 g/W dried buds. Cost-effective: Very affordable for indoor growers.

the wattage can be adjusted by the driver.

hope the above information is good for you. for more information, welcome to contact us.

Hello, Not trying to HiJack this thread.

Newbie here. Have yet to make the first harvest.
I have 2 tents going: 2x4x5(veg) and 3x4x6(flower\mother - combo).
Hydro.
You would think that I have tried to kill my first plants at every step of the way.
I have started to figure it out, mostly.
stupid

Now to the question:
I have started a few clones from trimmings.
They are now becoming...well...real plants.
stupid

I need reasonable recommendations < $100 if possible...

(edited for stupidity)

I grow in a 2x3x5 space. I use a cdmall led 1200w (240 actual watt) 70 bucks from Amazon. Working just fine for this space. There's always better tho

Hope this helps

Thanks for the quick response.

I think I will pick 2 of those up.
please post a link if you would...


this is what i found:

Ive noticed. Like all markets. Name brand is expensive. Granted you get what you pay for in most cases. I think every light would work,on the right application. 70 bucks for a 240w light. I couldn't pass it up. Working great for me. But I'm also not growing a room full. All depends what ya need

Thats what I have incase ya wanna give it a look.

I only recommend it because its the only one I have and it works decent lol

Thank you very much. It's enroute now.

Again, appreciate that help!

Will let you know how it goes.

You got the cdmall? Sweet man. Hope it works as good for you as it is for,me!

You wouldn't happen to have any recommendations on air pumps?

For a resivoir?

lol - yea.
Don't worry about it though just dropped 4 on lights and supplies for the time being.
Need to finish setting up everything else before I upgrade res and air system.

Thanks for the recommendations again.
Awesome to jump on to a site as a newb and be treated with a touch of respect.

Will show ya some pics of setups if you would like.

Trust me there are some dicks on here lol. There's a few on their high horses but the majority are awesome! I'm still learning alot as I go. This place helps alot! I actually kept my entire grow under 150 bucks in hopes new growers can find it helpful!

And absolutely send all the pics ya want!

well, like I said earlier. Did not mean to hijack the thread.
I will take some pics tomorrow as everything is in their dark cycle right now.
Below are some from a couple of weeks ago.
