there are many possible factors that play a role in yield.. the environment like temperature, humidity, growing medium, nutrients, watering schedule etc. etc.
light is of course also one.. you said you were growing in a 1.3 x 2 foot area (is it with reflective walls, or open?), and the TS600 should be fine for flowering in a 2x2, so no real need to upgrade the light.. you actually wouldn't want to go too strong with the light either (especially when not enriching the environment with co2), so i think you could tweak some of the other factors, and possibly try other genetics..

Hello.. Hope you are well.. Yes of course u can get better yeilds with more light..but..u have to factor in other parameters that this will change,heat management, watering and humity will b ur main issues.. U can 100% definitely get a higher yeild.. Not to say tgats a bad yeild under 1 85w light👍.. Add another or try the sp range if funds allow it.. Always remember ur parameters tho!!.. Keep ontop of these n u'll b happy.. Stay safe n gud luck.. 👍🍀

Your questions really open ended.
Always know your strain. Check the breeder info on the yields, THC/CBD, and harvest times.
There are skills to increase yield by using the different methods; ( topping, LST, HST, defollation ) read up on them and apply. We're here to help if have questions.
Last but not least Nuits, Good rule of thumb, you get what you pay for. Can go fairly cheap with your basics but additives cost money but will see the difference.

Lights for heat- 24/7 okay?I really need the heat of the lights to keep the inside of my tent warm. To warm the air around the tent 24/7 would be expensive- much more expensive than using the lights all the time. But will this work with 24 hour lights? Will that stress the plants? Using auto flowers.Week 1

Seeking a reasonably priced light for 2x4x6 tent (still)I'm interested in picking this up. Thoughts? I have a 2x4x6 tent. I believe it's 50w x 8sqft is 400 watts needed?

Low budget lightI don't know if this is the right light. I'm gonna leave it for a week but if I don't see any kind of growth I'm gonna replace it with some good light.
But since it's a wooden box I don't want to put a big light, maybe some stripe or bars, any low-budget suggestion is appreciatedWeek 2

LED's wont shut completely offLights seem to go on a "standby mode" instead of being all the way shut when timers switch them off. Should I buy some other timers? These were brand new, cheap ones though and both the same. Lights are HLG 600 RSPEC and both did this.
