I am just beginning to start this hobby. I’m currently working on a small setup to learn from and plan to progress in the future as I get more experienced. I want to start off with as little expense before jumping into bigger better equipment.

The tent I’ll be using is 4x2 and 5’ high. I purchased a FECiDA dimmable LED 2000w light. It says it’s 260w rated power, I assume that’s the actual output and the 2000w is not accurate from what I’ve read on here and from other message boards with most inexpensive LED lights. Will this light be enough to get me through a full grow with realistic expectations of getting solid yield but not award winning? Or am I throwing money away? The reviews seem positive from Amazon but I don’t put a lot into those.



I plan on starting with 5-6 seeds and hoping for a 50% female rate, 2-3 would be ideal.

I haven’t got the exhaust yet and looking for a cheap option for this as well. Any tips on that would be appreciated too.
