4x4 tent 1/2 per plant what lights to add

[Miiikke]

Honestly, genetics is 90% of it. If you don't have heavy buds, you ain't gettin 2oz/sqft no matter how well your environment is.Temps and humidity can vary a bit.

Dosi dos do well with trainin

If I add the Cree cob 3000w(600 watts) to the tent 4x4x7 and my tsw200(300w) willl that be enough? Also i’m seeing a lot of mixed input. I’m doing four plants but from here it seems you guys are saying if I do more plants like five or six, I could get the same yield with less wattage/lights. Is that true?

you could get 2lbs on four with 900 true watts of anything yes, with good training.

Thank you for a definitive answer. I have one more sorta unrelated question. With the t6 in-line fan, would I still need equipment like a humidifier/dehumidifier and AC/heater? I know the t6 regulates that so I just want to be sure before I buy anything else.

Not sure about tents, I grow open in a sterile bathroom lol, I think comforatable conditions for me are comforatable for the plant lol. Himidity stays around 55% and they get plenty CO2 from me when I train tf out of them lol. Its worked well so far.

I use the T6 in a 5x5 and it is amazing. I have 0 humidity issues; however, it does keep it a little cool when lowering the moisture

Cooler temp should make for closer lights!

Id say wattage for yeild either way. More plants equal less training needed, but same amount of lights distributed for expected weight. If you did everything perfect you could get up to 3 lbs with that setup, with up to an additional lb for each additional 300 to 450 watts

2lbs off 4 plants with 900w of shitty light in a 4 x 4 is impossible - even with the best seeds.

Expect 1 to 1.5 g per watt if you train it well. Figure out how many tops so youll have a goal and you can divide to how much dry bud weight youd need on each cola and you can have control of your outcome

HAHa gl with that.

Watts are watts right. I use LED they stay cool and I can get close. I dont know about lesser quality type lights, but he could do it with LED or better for sure, if trained well, thats the deciding factor

Dont listen to people tell you what you cant do bro, if you wanna be a good grower. Just the ones that help you figure it out, They dont call it weed for nothing, you can grow it up a fence if you want. Keep an open mind! Go with facts and reason. Remember yeild depends on training and veg duration (alot of pre flower prep). Good luck!

No! good leds are more efficient than mh or hps. Shitty blurple work, but you ain't gonna get 2lbs off 4 plants in a 4 x 4. At least not on my scale - trim and larf is compost. 600w good led or 1000w hps will get it done.

Yeah your right, not 900 watts of anything, that was dumb to say! I just meant LED. Dont use incandescent please! Thanks for the info!!

Watts are a measurement of power draw and not of light. Just a measurement of how much of a certain light you’re getting of how much draw from the wall. I misspoke

Whats blurple? Cause mine look kinda blurple but it consist of multiple 80 true watt led bulbs

Is this blurple? Is that no good. They say 80 true watt led each and the plant is doing well, will it not max bud size with full coverage?

Does it eliminate the need for extra equipment like humidi/dehumidi or heat/AC?

 

[Madmax]

I think you will need 600w..i grew 2 under 6/750 at 600 to get 1p .vegged for 8 weeks though...

Trust me, I made a pound of weed off of 13 plants and cheap Walmart CFL’s and no climate control at all. Even made a YouTube series and was told repeatedly that it was the worst set up in the world(which it was y’all should check it out just to see). But yes, anything is possible and I’m here for the thrill and learning experience. Thanks for all the help.
