Light Upgrade... Need something that will produce good results and relatively low heat

GreenSmokerstarted grow question 5y ago

Hoping someone can help me my grow space is 60x60x170 and I’m currently using a Mars Hydro 300W but need to upgrade it. I’m looking at the Viparspectra pro series P1000 and Viparspectra V300 but am unsure which one would be best for my set up. What would you go for?...

Приветствую, бро! p1000 будет мало (100w), а v300 будет много (300w). Я рекомендую присмотреться к лампам с мощностью 150-200w. Для твоей площади необходимо среднее значение мощности тех ламп. Удачи, бро! 👌😇👍

Thank you for answering my question... I will have a look at the P1500. I’ve had a Mars Hydro TS 600 delivered today will that do the job or would I best off moving it on and going for the P1500?...

60*60 grow area or 4 sq ft. you need between 30 to 40 watts per sq ft to flower with led lights (you can go higher) The V300 is 136 watts, that gives you 34 watts per sq ft, enough for flower. CON; it's burple The P1000 is 100 watts, that gives you 25 watts per sq ft, enough to veg, but insufficient for flower. Great light for half your space The P1500 is 150 watts, that would put you at 37 watts per sq ft. I would choose this one.

Added a light, how far should I hang them both from the girls?I have added a Mars Hydro TS600 to my tent along with the Spider Farmer SF1000 in my 2x2, how far should I move them up away from the plants? I'm guessing I don't want them as low as the SF1000 was on its own which was around 15" Thank you lovely people!

Grow lights I'm currently looking for a new grow light. But it's crazy how many choices there are. Since my grow area is very small, 40x40cm or 1x1', I don't need a lot of wattage. So would prefer to invest in quality over quantity. Any suggestions?
