Spider Farm (SF) vs Horticulture Lighting Group (HLG)

It puts 12" spacing end to end between boards. Probably won’t even for into most 3x3 tents. I think it’s a 35" heatsink. A lot of the tents are shy of actual listed measurements, and will shrink under negative pressure.

The 260xl is kit for a 2x4, not great option for 3x3.

Thank you brother. I just wish I could find it on Amazon. I’ve got credit there. I’ve gone to more than a couple of sites where this is out of stock. do you know if it’s been replaced? Maybe I can get a little cheaper

You can build a light with qb 120’s that may be available on Amazon.

That’s an idea. Sorry. That’s not really a way to start. I don’t mean to say it’s a bad idea. What do I know? Do you mean two of these?


Wouldn’t It, the light I mean, Exceed the light I need for my 3 x 3? And brother, since it’s actually cheaper to buy it this way, are both lights that are equal to the grow task, actually EQUAL to the other, When combined? Honestly at this point we’re only talking about 50 bucks. I have, thanked you profusely right

No, this is a complete light. I meant grab a 4 pack of the qb 120’s and assemble a fixture out of them.

This is not really ideal fixture to work with for your space. Two not really enough and 4 is too many.
