If its 1000 watts at the wall over a 2x3, you have plenty of light.Hi Guys,
I use a 1000w LED over a 2 x 3" scrog grow. I'm going to try supplimental lighting around the four corners of the room with 60w LED corn bulbs. Have I wasted my money ? Or will it add some bulk to the periphery of my grows? Any experience would be appreciated. I manage ok with the 1000w, but the buds are not as full around the edges.
Cheers

I found that when I did a grow in my stealth box the edge buds were also smaller than the middle. Is your grow area quite short? LED panels without reflectors don't spread out the light very much, in my unprofessional opinion I'd like to think having those lights around the edges could only improve the situation. Unless you've got a expensive panel like a Cali lightworks solarstorm or something like that, it's probably not pulling 1000w at the wall. If it's something like this then it's probably 200w equivalent if you're lucky. IMHO

Can't remember how to search for individual threads lol. There's a search bar somewhere :D
