Hey guys I’ve just ordered my first tent it’s the mars hydro 3x3 smart kit. It comes with a ts1000 150 watt light. I was wondering if I added 1 more of those lights, would that be too much for that size tent. And if it’s not too much light how many plants would I be able grow at once to get the best yield? Thanks for all answers and hopefully that made some sense

I have run 2 Vivosun 150 watt units mounted at the top of the tent and just moved the plants. It was in a 31x31x63 tent. It will run photos at 65klux with a fairly good pattern until about 14 inches away and then they become 2 separate light patterns. It will do 2 photos and 4 autos.
You have 9 square feet divide 300 watts by 9 and get your average watts per foot. Photos need 42-50 and autos 35-45
Guidelines.
