3000 watt power use
GrimReefer01started grow question 4 years ago
This is my first time using such a powerful light in my opinion, 3000 watts seems overkill but that's what i want. The question IS, is it better to have 1-2 plants under the 3000 watt or worth it to manage 4 at a higher distance? Cheers. Don't keep techniques in mind.

Your light would in fact only be around 400 true watts and a 400 watt light will easley handle 4 plants and your distance should stay the same but I would only run it at half power at the start until your plants can handle it.

What’s the ideal amount of LED light for top quality in a 4x4 tent.I’m exclusively looking to grow top end quality.
Already can with HPS setup but wanting to switch.
Is 480w Kingbrite LED quantum board with 385,660,730nm enough for this or do I need more?
Any other suggestions? Aliexpress/Alibaba manufacturers preferred due to shipping costs.Setup. Lighting

Short period growHey fellow growers.
So I have an odd question,
Is it actually possible to start grow with 12/12 straight away?
And how will it affect my plants?
Let's say I have 3 autos and one photo.
Will I have anything worth the time if I start straight with 12/12 light schedule? Thanks youOther. General questions

How many watts do I need for my small tent?I am using a full spectrum LED that draws only 30W from the wall but it might be too weak since my plant is getting lanky. I have moved it closer to the plant but now I am afraid of over-heating. How many watts LED would be sufficient for my 40cmX40cmx120cm tent?Plant. Too tall
