Well ive been running a couple of cheap china made 200 watt led fixtures in my 2x4 grow tent. Upgrading and thinking about going to HLG 350R. Anyone use this fixture and could let me know what you think. ---

You would be trading an AMC Gremlin for a Bugatti Veyron. ---

Thanks for the quick response. Will it be enough for flower in a 2x4!?? ---

HLG says it will flower a 3x5 so you may need to run it a little under 100% but that should not matter. ---

Thank you. Much appreciated. Going to pull the trigger. 499.00 bucks seems reasonable. ---

I use the HLG 600R in my four by four tent, and my first crop I harvested 21 oz. and the second, I got 17 oz. and all of the plants were very sticky, dank, and wonderful. I love the light, and as of now, would not consider buying anything other than a HLG product. The fact that they use samsung diodes, and extra reds at that, was the reason I originally purchased this lamp although it was pricey. In my opinion it was worth the extra money. ---

You’ll crush it with a 350r. It’s a fantastic light. ---

I run a 350R in my 2x4 and the Diablo in my 4x4 and you absolutely can’t go wrong with HLG. TBH the 350R is overpowered for the space - but that’s cool. It’s there if I need it but I generally don’t have to run it wide open to get GREAT results. I’m in my first grow with the Diablo but the results I’m seeing so far are stellar! I went for a refurb unit and feel perfectly safe with it. HLG’s got my - and your - back! At the street prices for decent weed around here I only have to grow what?, like 5oz to have paid for it! The 350R has been saving me money since last October as I haven’t had to buy weed since my first harvest came in back then. I do run supplemental UVA and various reds but even without those the lights are near perfect! Best of Luck!! ---

Thanks for that info. So what percentages may i ask do you run during veg and flower on the 350? ---

The actual setting on the light doesn’t matter so much as making sure they’re getting the proper amount of light each day. If the light is closer to the plants it’ll take less power to get the right setting than it will if the light is further away from the plants. I “kinda” follow this guide but tend to run slightly “hot” of the recommendations. LOL! The plants will let me know if I need to back off. > [@Start using DLI](https://ilgmforum.com/t/start-using-dli/64987): > > Daily Light Interval (DLI) is a quick and efficient way to calculate how much light our plants are receiving within a 24hr period, allowing for easy light adjustments. DLI will help you and the community to better understand your lighting in a more universal term, leading to clearer communication of what the true light value is. Almost all smartphones have the ability to use an app (we will get to this don’t jump the gun) in order to calculate DLI, and if that is not an option a cheap LUX meter… ---
