how much money are we looking to spend? What coverage needed? all these systems scale different. I'm a COB and QB fun boy as of today. Skip Mars regardless...

Oh, and 180W Hanse panel is really good piece, but you can get 200W Citizen framework that is ready to be hanged for $360 from Timber nowadays, I don't see reason going bluerple if you going led, unless its a Cree XPE/G set up. Have you looked at CMH?

just noticed the timestamps on both posts ;)

If money is any kind of an issue don't waste your money on the kind LED. The cheap LEDs work just fine. Plus you don't want to get wrapped up in all that technical data they are basically all the same. Par and all that stuff can be misleading. You can take two Lights of the same wattage and one might have a higher par and the other weeker but it's only because one might have a concentrated beam of laser and the other may have a widespread.

Check out the specs on those cheap panels from eBay. They are the two best and most efficient nanometers possible 450 + 660. They use about 20 watts at the wall and produce no heat. Placing those just below the canopy pointing at those small buds with thin stems we'll beef them up big time. There will be nothing more efficient or least expensive you could do. I would go with two galaxyhydro 300 on top and four panels on sides. For a three-by-three that would be sufficient.
