If I have a window with a good amount of light entering everyday is it sufficient for the plants?

Window light is good for veg, especially if it receives direct sunlight for a good amount of time during the day. However, I don't know if it will suffice for flower.

Is it better to have one light unit that covers the full area of the tent or use multiple smaller ones? Im using 2 small leds. Is it better to have the ability to dim the lights or just have one power of intensity?

UV rays - Is it worth
So guys, what are your thoughts about UV light complementation? Earlier this year, I havested an auto flower, and she dind't bulk up the trich production. I ended up with big flowers but with no effect at all. I was wondering if that has something to do with my light setup.

Lighting Horsepower
I have a Horticultural Lighting Group 260 QB V2 R Spec light (260 watt LED). I previously had a 20" x 36" tent and the light was great. I have just gotten a 36" (91cm) x 36" (91cm) tent and wondering if this is enough power for great production or if more light would be better?

Light strength
2 of my autos have been harvested and now I just have 1 mature plant mid flower and I've started my 3 other seedlings. I've got a tsw 2000 w/310 wts. Should I keep my lights at 100% for maximum growth or should I back off a touch to say 75 or 80%?

Tent too hot?
I added two blurple lights - I'm not sure how much they're helping growth but they are definitely making the tent hotter - about 5 degrees F. I have a fan blowing at the bottom of the tent and at top over the lights but I'm worried that it might be too hot. Should I ditch them?

Did I start LST too early?
At day 22, did I start LST too early? I feel that I may have stunted the growth a little from overheating, but didn't want to wait too long to start training. Also, would a higher-powered light cause less distance between the nodes, and therefore make LST harder/less effective?
