Lights died
Steevoh978
started grow question 5y ago
So my lights died last night. Would a 2000 watt be good for a 4×4 tent?

hey Steevo, it's probably overkill to be honest, you're alright with 600W , anything much more than that is a bonus, but i would get a dimmer for it just in case. hope this helps ! 🚀

If its HID light, may be a bit overkill. If its LED it depends on what it draws from wall wattage.

Anyone have any history with vibrating HPS lamps? Mine keeps making a buzzing/rattling noise. I’m thinking it’s the metal inside rattling on the glass so if I slightly rotate it it may stop? What do you think? Thanks!

How to switch to flowering
It's been about 5 weeks from germination. I think we're ready to switch to flowering. I'm just not certain on how to go about it. Do I gradually reduce 18/6 of the veg light down to 12/12 (over a week?) then pop in the flower bulb? Or do I just make a hard switch?

Wow. Thank you so much for the reply. I have been playing with LUX meter app and my light. I was bit skeptical about the lumens that I would get from the 15W but as it turns out, it receives well enough ppfd. Still skeptical about the spectrum i am having.

Hi guys! What light should I get? The viparspectra xs1000 or the marshydro ts1000? I intend to grow in a 2x2 space. Would the viparspectra be as bright as the marshydro because its more efficient?

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?
