High guys how’s everybody doing this afternoon? I have been busy trimming and hanging my first crop yay. Gonna upgrade my tent now. I just ordered 6"exhaust fan ducting and filter. Gonna use my 4" system as an intake. Just wondering if anyone could help me decide on a good light and my budget is around $600. My tent is 2.5x5x6. I do already have 2 oscillating fans for good circulation and just got my bag of Co2 and heater with a thermostat that I program with warmer temps at day and cooler at night. Also just got my supersprouter to start my next grow super excited to see how that works well anyway guess I need to stop ramblin lol. Any suggestions on lights would be greatly appreciated 600 budget 2.5x5x6 tent

HLG, Chilled, or DIY with Bridgelux come to mind. Be sure to get a light built with Samsung LM301 series diodes and stay away from the Amazon burple lights.
Is it 2.5x5 feet? An HLG 320W LED V2 Rspec XL Kit would be a good light for a 2.5x5.
CO2 does little good for the vast majority of hobby growers. You need to be able to provide intense lighting, higher temps, high nute levels, and a closed environment for CO2 to help.

Thanks and yes 2.5 feet wide x 5 feet long x 6 feet tall
I just purchased my first led grow light a couple of months ago. The main thing to look for as I quickly found out is the best quality diodes and driver combination. I ended up buying a Viparspectra XS series light. For the money I couldn’t find anything else to compete with it. They have Samsung LM301B diodes and use a Meanwell driver. I am more than happy with the results I’m getting! Mars Hydro makes quality lights also. I’d start with these two brands and look for the model that would best suit my requirements. Hope this helps!
Any advice is always appreciated I just finished my 1st grow and am learning everyday. Thanks
Hey I’m new don’t have any hard proof, but HLG having a sale so give them a call, just switch to the 300 R spec had to 2 smaller lights, Samsung dio, meanwell driver, both, This one light covers a bigger area with better average coverage, ruing less then 100% power. So HLG just check, they have more red light look at all the charts, I did good luck
I have 2 HLG 600R-SPEC lights. Super happy
