I’m just curious to as what light is the best for auto flowering? I currently have a Vivosun vs1000. Is this enough lighting for all stages of growth? Or should I put the light that came with my tent in as well? Or toss both and get another!? It’s a cheap light I’m sure I got a starter grow tent that came with everything to get started! Cheap on Amazon I think I spent 200 for everything! It’s came with a supposedly 300 watt ufo light!
The grow tent is only a 2 x 2 x 48!
Also this is off topic but could anyone also tell me if this is the right range to be in for seedling stage!? It’s pretty much consistent! 70-78 degrees during day with 60-70% humidity! Night time is more of 70 degrees with a consistent 60% humidity!

The vs1000 is just barely enough to get ya through with one plant .
What kind of other light is it you have that you could maybe add?
It could possibly be a little benefit to run it also in the later stages.
The temperature and humidity are good 
even warmer would be fine.

I was just looking at the topo kit with the “300w” ufo light on Amazon about to ask was that it 
But it says the ufo is 100w power draw so yeah man that would be 200w in the 2x2 and that’s very respectable
If it will fit you could absolutely use both.
Maybe the vs1000 at first and add the ufo halfway through veg or right at flowering.

Yes sir that’s the exact kit I got lol I just bought the vs1000 cuz I thought I knew what I needed lol newbie mistake! But I can most definitely fit it in there! The way I have my induct system set up gives me just a little bit more room up top!
So when exactly would yu slap it in? Mid veg? Or beginning of flower?

Depends really, if growing autos you never know exactly when flower will start so say my plant was getting good size starting to fill the tent up I’d probably add it in veg but if i saw it was starting to flower and i hadn’t added it yet, i would definitely do it then if that makes sense.
Just the vs1000 alone can do fairly well, many people have started out with that 100w light or similar.
If you did upgrade in the future and get you a nice big light, these 2-100w lights would be perfect to start and veg plants then put them under the bigger better light
