Says it does a flower at 5x5 so for best results I'd grab a second if you can afford it! Remember watts = yield! Get the max you can! Happy growing!

It will work just will be some reduced yields on the edges of your tent. Up to you!

2x2x4 yield expectations?I want to use a 2x2x4 tent, growing (Gorilla Cookies) autos in Nature Living super soil mixed with Coco Loco. I want to yield just a few high quality ounces. Is this easily achievable with one 3 gallon pot under a SF-1000? Should I be concerned with any plant height issues?

Light intensity for 2.5 week auto flower Can anyone recommend how high and what percentage to run my light. The leaves have not been strongly perked up in a few days and I wonder if it's that the intensity of light is too high. I've been at 80% at around 14 inches. vipraspectra p600. Critical purple auto.

Best LEDs or small HID to replace 1000W dimmable HID for small space I'm using a 1000w HID setup I had from before, running at 50% in a cool tube. It's loud and not efficient. Maybe it's time I switch to LEDs or a 250 HID. I don't want to sacrifice bud quality but I'm low on funds. Any recommendations for a good light that will fill this space?
