Kingbrite 240w quantum board.
Maybe a 360w if you want to go overboard.

Hlg is us

Kingbrite is China.

U get double your money’s worth w King but u deal with reps there and wait 2-3 wks shipping

Don’t bother with amazon n get tricked by something claiming big things

U get what u pay for

Amazon has the hlg lights, are they fakes?
Was looking into the Spider Farmer lights, they are definitely cheaper but seem to get good reviews.
Thanks for the info

No

I meant amazon leds, the ones marketed as incredible but really junk

Hlg does have stuff there, sometimes but often marked up a bit

But if ur going to order multiple lights kingbrite is worth it.

Order one extra for parts or to replace it one goes down for any reason.

But I’d consider a pack of qp132 w a 320w driver or one of their 260/300watt setups if u want something less diy since ur probably buying 1 light and want it reliable

Oh spider....

Just buy a hlg, timber, or strip light setup unless on a spider type budget.

If ur short on cash til u get a few rounds under your belt to pay for the hobby buy one that would make a good veg light

Cuz your going to want a 2x2 sooner or later to veg, clone, dry.....whatever and will likely need a light

Think i am going to try this one
HLG 100 V2 3000K Horticulture Lighting Group Quantum Board LED G...
The price is right for a starter light, it says its good for flowering where the 4k was more for veg.what do you think?

Are u handy?? Have u ever wired anything?

The 100w is only going to be enough to flower 30% of the tent.

If u live in an area like Cali, Michigan or another state where medical has been around a long while u could hit Craigslist for a used hps

But the 100w would be great for a 2x2 veg, quite small for a 2x4

Wiring something yourself is very very cheap

I am unfortunately not handy. I definitely like the hgl 300, wondering what your think of the electric sky lights. They have a 300 that looks like great coverage fkr this size tent. How do they stand up to the hgl
