so heres the deal: have a cab that is 2ftx4ftx6ft...the flowering chamber is more like 5ft high..do too the veg chamber being 1ft high. just to root some clones yea dig?? man i sound cool saying that:blsmoke:any way. dont have the money for my hps setup so im stuck with mh's to flower with..so my Q: is should i use the one 1000watt because it has more red sepcs??? or use two 400watts because they have more points of lights and can be placed closer?? i know its not a big space but i want the most bang for my buck..what do you guys and gals think?? any input is nice thanks and:peace:

If that is all the space you have and you don't have anymore money how are you going to keep it cool enough fpr either option??VV

The 1000 watt will produce 195000 lumens, the 2 400's about 90,000 lumens. 20% more power used, twice the lumens, if heat is not an issue........VV
