Hi all! I have a 2x4 tent that will be my final flowering tent. I have my light selection narrowed down by research time and budget. These are the three I’m looking at. Lmk what ya think!
HLG 350r
Phlizon CREE COB Series 2500W
California light works solar xtreme 500
I love my 350r i have 3 but in a 4x8 lol
Have the hlg260xl in a 4x2 great buds.
350r would be perfect. The California Lightworks would be ok too. I’d go with whatever is less expensive.
Have you looked into Migro? The Aray is built for a 2x4
i looked at that, too. i’m trying to shop on amazon w/ gift cards and they don’t sell the DIY kits there. they have the 350r tho.
I was thinking you were taking about the California Lightworks with the adjustable spectrum. It’s the lesser expensing expensive solar extreme you’re looking at.
In that case, the 350r for sure
I Think HLG had a discount code that can be used on Amazon … I’ll look around to see if I can find it for you.
Just go on google and search hlg promo codes and tr y a few til u get a good one. Some are 10% off some 5 bucks off ect. Good luck. My say would be hlg also but it is ur grow and ur choice. Hlg lights rock for sure i have 3x 260 xls and they r wonderful
Without a doubt, HLG all day long and twice on Sundays.
I’ll never buy another grow light unless it has HLG or ChilLed on the packaging.
A quick Interwebz search will lead you to a discount code. I found 3 when I bought my light.
Look at their PAR efficacy. It’s not as good as HLG. I do like those Migro designs better
though. I think they look more cutting edge, they just need to improve on the lighting effectiveness.
Your Prolly want to get @dbrn32 to throw his $0.02 into the Grow mix.
HLG are awesome lights! I just got bad advice to add so I will stop here.
Of the stuff listed, definitely get the hlg-350r. It is slightly bigger than you need for 2x4, but the dimming option will allow you to dial down for efficiency or up of you want to push the plants hard. It’s going to give you the best performance in your space of models listed.
Thanks to all for the feedback. I know there are literally hundreds of options and thousands of valuable opinions but I tried to keep it simple with my choices. Looks like I know what I’m getting!
Is that even a question? HLG , My bud are lookin like the plants of my favorite growers from ILGM
@dbrn32 is like E.F. Hutton, when he talks people listen…
Thanks again! Here is what I have going on right now. Second grow, first with photosynth plants. Cherry diesel and ecto cooler. End of Third week of flower flip.
Plants look green and healthy, nice job! They will definitely appreciate new light when you get it.
Hung the new light yesterday. I started the intensity at halfway and will ramp up over the next week. I wish it was gauged in some way.
If you pick up a kill-a-watt meter you’ll know exactly what your wattage is.

@dbrn32 been researching lights and reading the forums. I have a 2x4 tent looking into 320w XL V2 rpec from hlg.
Thanks for any suggestions
Its a nice light in your space, should do very well for you.
