So I'm trying to set up a shipping container as grow room. It's a 45x8 and 9.6 tall. Now with 8 wide 2 rows of 1000w gavitas might be too much however just 1 row in the midle might not be enough. I wanted to go with 1000w because I will have short plants and the light will be more then 2 feet away from the canopy. I also heared that the 750 gavitas only cover 4x4 or so so with that I could go 2 rows. But I wonder if it would affect the quality or the size of the buds?

Why not 3 rows to get full coverage?
Would that not be easier?
Would that give you overlap on coverage.
Never been an indoor grower but I think if one applies same methodology as irrigation to turf areas making sure you have overlapping you have no dry spots. Same principle would surely apply to lighting. Full coverage overlapping no?

be careful in containers mate,you have to put some kind of vent exhaust out of them ,they build up excessive heat and will catch fire
