Hi Farmers, got a new room and can't figure out the approach I ultimately want to go with. I currently have some rather large girls that need flowereing right away so will most likely just flower those now under a 1k while I figure out the real setup. I am open to vert or horizontal hoods, I have done both and currently do vert. My initial thought was 2 600s over 2 3x3 trays and then 1k over a 5.5'x5.5' area but then was toying with 5 600s vert. Thoughts?

It might be tight but you could go with 4 x 600's

OR

2 x 1kw w/ 8" Raptors

4x600 would rock that spot. Or 2 x 1000 on a mover only gotta move about 3 feet so quick return times on the lightrail.

Never use light movers, the grower on the other side of town has them, but his shit sucks so not looking good on him talking me into using them! Yet, it would seem to me that the plant will attempt to follow the light burning up energy that should be devoted to bud production. Now if that is really true I don't know, but it seems to make sense in my mind which isn't saying much at times.

thanks for the ideas guys! did some more measuring and looks usable area is really 5'x9' so I am leaning toward 2 1k's. For now, I will most likely use 2 600s and 1 1k since i have the 600s and see how it goes.
