I have the SF2000 and SF1000 and I love them so far. I’m almost at my first harvest with both of these lights and they didn’t disappoint. I’m running the 2000 on a 2x4 scrog and it’s filled with giant dense sticky buds. I am using the 1000 on some cookies I have a diary for and those buds are almost as fat as coke cans.

The SF4000 is a good choice, for a 3x3 or 4x4 max. I have done a lot of research and it seems a good light in regards to light intensity. The new one I think is dimmable which is a nice feature.
Although there are some on alibaba that I think would best it for value and light intensity such as this
https://m.alibaba.com/product/62426078663/detail.html
The array type above should spread the light more evenly, there are many other options in there just to consider.
Personally I am going to go with two Mars SP3000’s as the light test results are exceptional and should smash a 600w in yields.
Here is a test of the sf4000

Light intensityMy plants have been looking sad for a couple weeks. Tried everything then the other night I turned my light down to 40% giving a DLI of 28 they perked right up with 24 hours. I have now put it up to 60% giving a DLI off 39 will this be ok or should I keep it low. Week 2 flower.

Lighting cycle for VEG stage. Is 24x7 OK?Hi,
Should I use the VEG lights 24x7 from the time I plant my seed until it's ready to bloom, or would something like 18 hours on and 6 hours off make more sense? Is there a "best practice" for veg lighting? It has worked for my first 3 grows. VIPARSPECTRA 600W LED
Thanks,

Bad idea?Will a mars hydro TS1000 be too strong for a 60x60x140cm tent?
I have been using a TS600 and TS1000 in tandem in a tent 4x too big for the light level, I have been growing strong and tasty buds but with low yields so downsizing my tent size to maximise the light.Other. General questions

Diferencia en el color verde de las hojasEstas plantas automáticas están recibiendo la misma alimentación, agua, etc y están en el mismo tipo de sustrato. Pero unas (las más oscuras) reciben luz artificial adicional (Neón CFL) para llegar a tener 17h de luz al día. ¿Es normal la diferencia? ¿Cuál se ve mejor?
