Hi y’all! So I wasn’t paying attention when I hit the order button that I purchased a 2x4x5’ tent instead of a 2x3. I only have a 600 (100w) non dimmable. Now that I moved her from my DIY 2x2 into the tent, @Highwayman420 was right. The light is nowhere near enough now. She’s a photoperiod GG so it’s not a huge deal but I’ll clearly need something more. Is it cool just to get another of what I have? Or should I save the 600 for seedlings and go with something much bigger?
I got some lights from Horticultural lighting group after suggestions from many people on here and I am very happy I did. An HLG260 rspec would be plenty for that size tent, I think my last one came out to 282 bucks after using discount code DUDE. I also have an HLG 135 rspec that came out to around 150 bucks and it is hanging in my 2x4 over some 14 day old seedlings and is set to about 70 watts right now. I think the 135 is fine for veg in a 2x4, but I would get a second 135 or use one of the 260’s if I tried to take that tent into flower. Every person that responds to you probably knows more than I do about the subject, but HLG customer support has been excellent for me. Also Happy cake day to @BobbyDigital !
