Hi, many have probably seen I will be a new indoor grower and flying a bit blindly. I know to come here for help and already learned a lot. I am having trouble picking a light. I have a 5x5 tent coming. I am looking at these

Ion 720 https://www.growgeneration.com/search/Ion 720
I’ve also seen the spider farms product. I need it as a broad spectrum because I can only have one light. From my research I like the individual bars for what seems like it has better distribution. I don’t think the ION 720 comes with an external controller which I wouldn’t mind having. Depending on price I’ll get it now or save a bit more. There are so many out there and being so inexperienced it’s really daunting. It’s a lot of money and I’d like to get it right. I also like the added I. Just because of videos I’ve seen (I don’t actually know). To me the spectrum on the 680 seems better but I don’t really know what I’m looking at. I actually ordered the 720 but canceled it. I know it’s negligible but staying under 700w pull would be a preference. I also like the idea of added IR. If it’s needed, I’ll get over that pretty quickly. Thanks for any input or advice. Hope you’re all having a great day!

Those are great lights!! However, Imho the Spiderfarmer lights for the cost, are hard to beat. if money is an issue.
