How many watts for a 2x4 growspace

[DankNugz420]

Wait you use 1 of those lights in a 4x8?

They have veg/bloom switch. Just white diodes are active in veg then switch to bloom and the red and uv diodes activate.

Just throwin another option out there lol personally I would like to try a Mars out to see if it's any better but dam they are pricey lol

I'm just completing a grow in a 2x4x6ft tent and I used 2 x TS1000 from Mars Hydro 150w each so 300w, 130 quid each on the Mars Hydro website.

So i would only need one right ? For my 2x4

 

[DankNugz420]

Could get away with 1 but my opinion would be probly to run 2 of them for flower for the extra coverage. The foot print is kinda slim according to the booklet.

 

[DankNugz420]

They put some good light out but the foot print is slim. lemme see what else I can scratch up from these guys, they have a hand full of different styles

I just bought, had store order this light today for veg. It would light up a 2’ by 4’ quite well IMO. 296$ out the door.

They are a bit pricey at 200 each

Don’t cheap out on lights you will pay twice and your blurples will be ewaste like mine.

 

[DankNugz420]

Yea man gotta find a happy medium on budget, and the "blurple" lights are ok for supplemental but I personally wouldn't run only blurple. Im a fan of sun like or full spectrum myself but then again I haven't had experience with anything other than the ones I got so I dunno how much weight my opinion can really pull here lol. Always love hearing other people's perspective on stuff like this

 

[DankNugz420]

This one looks pretty sweet except the price lol

 

[DankNugz420]

If I had the money id try this one probly

Mars hydro isn't as efficient as the other companies.

All full spectrum lights are made for both flowering and vegging, they're the way to go. Plus, those full spec lights will shorten your veg times.
