What’s the ideal amount of LED light for top quality in a 4x4 tent.
Pupperstarted grow question 5y ago
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.

Hey bro! The truth is I tried a really good panel in 120cmX120cm, it also had 480w of 3500k mix uv 660nm iR, it wasn't bad, I imagine that if you use and try 480w in 100cmX100cm it will perform much better! Before anything, if you're going to use LED, I 100% recommend using "LED bars" since their distribution in lcm and light is much better than a panel... I invite you to check out my diary to see how 480w looks in a 120cm closet... remember to use bars! ;) Cheers, king!

I’m in a 4x4 and have several different lights going. I would say nothing short of 600watts or something with a better par value. Buy once, cry once—- get a good light for the space. I have ChilLed Grow Craft and Spectre LEDs and love them. Good luck ✌️🏻💚🌿💨

You would need 800 watts of actual LED power for maximum light intensity and absorption for a 4x4. Anything over 800 watts is just extra power that the plants probably can't use.
800 watts being pulled from the wall. Actual power consumption.

If you want to equal your hps then an led that needs c02 along with it is needed. No others will give you the size and hardness of hid lighting

Would this be an upgrade or downgrade?Currently using a 400w HPS on a 18/6 schedule for my autoflower.
I've just seen this being sold on FB and wondered whether this might be as efficient/better/worse than what I already have
Appreciate that it's a 'budget' light, but still looks pretty good 🤷♂️🏼

WHAT IS CAUSING MY LEAVES TO CURL? (Day 64 pictures)The leaves at the top of the plant seem to be curling up. My first guess is that there is too much light. I recently moved my light down to 12 inches above the canopy. The PPFD should still be under 1,000, but I don't know what else could be causing it. Please help. 🙏6y ago
