Just a question for you led guys running higher watts like 50w/sq ft. Do you run them maxed out and at what height? Reflective walls?
Also which boards?

I'm just trying to figure out why I have such a different experience.

I run about 70 watts per! I think that I run mine at about 70% depending on what in the 3x3 tent. Above that I get light stress.

Awesome I think you will do well with it. The 2 boards will give ya better spread and allow you to keep em a bit closer without sacrificing the spread. That will help ya on the intensity.

Two smaller lights, rather than a single larger light, will also keep you in business just in case one fails! PLUS, plants of different heights are more easily accommodated.

Thanks for your kind words and the blessing.

Yeah, she is a nice person, actually, her photo also appears in my thread. We belong to a little team called "JEY" of Mars Hydro.

We are improving, no-stop, we will win farmers' trust.

Thanks for your advice, that's what we are doing now, fix the image.
I believe that won't happen if they're good enough. I just need to keep an eye on our competitors and make sure we don't get kicked out of the car.
If we are not the sponsor here, we are absolutely willing to offer you a job, you are a great worker, speaks for us, not the K light, lol

In a 3x3 I have 2 x 240w quantum setups.
I havent needed to dim them, but I have them mounted about 8 inches from the top of the tent and also dont need to lower them. So far so good. I think there is enough saturation that I dont need to worry about it. I hope

480/(3x3=9)=53.333 watts per square foot. I'm thinking of adding some supplemental red late in flower too. Maybe another 40 to 50w

For Canada, we usually ship it via FedEx and UPS. For European countries, we usually work with GLS and DHL. I must say DHL service is really not comparable to other courier companies

I'm not in a huge hurry to get the lights. If I receive it within the next couple of weeks I will be fine. I am also not a huge fan of DHL....

Noice, I was going to just use a couple bulbs at first.

HIGROW 36W All Deep Red 660nm LED Grow Light Bulb for Indoor Plants Flowering Bloom and Fruiting, Grow Spectrum Enhancement and Light Therapy

Was gonna ask, what are you using for a heatsink on those reds?

I run my QB's about the same as you. 400 watts over a 4x4 or 25watts/sq ft, and thats with them 24"+ over the canopy. Seen no difference when I turned them up to 30+ watts/sq ft. But I am in a tent also...

nothing on the red.... don't get hot at 20w at all.. I have room were they don't touch the alum so air moves though....

I use 2inch screws run them 90% to the strip them screw to the alum..then cut the end off.... that way they hang down

that link is sweet those can just go into a can light...ty
