Not for me...I like the look of SOG but I get more from the whole plant than just the tops...My 1000w light hangs vertically with an umbrella reflector and I spin my plants daily to get front, back & sides. I have an open room with panda plastic frames I can surround my plants with and get a lot of reflective light.
I had to move locations in this pic and my panda plastic walls are not up. Also too many plants to use the light effectively I only want 5-6 plants not 18 that I think were crammed in here and the light doesn't t penetrate all that well. It shows my light though.

I also like less plants than more, 4 is out allowed limit, I like to stay at least close to that to limit my culpability somewhat. Its all personal anyways But 4 big plants will replace 20 small ones and 20 here is too many.
So much less maintenance & nutes as well.
