yeah set it to 250w and you'll be fine.I used to use 400w in a 90x90x180 tent with cooltube,that was good too. but either way you'll need a cooltube reflector. without cooltube, temps hit 33-34C easily.

I would say it is way too big. A 200 or 250 watt would be more appropriate in my opinion.

Swapping lights during flowering
Do you guys think that swapping lights at the late flowering stage is going to harm my girls in any way? Been fortunate enough to be able to order myself a Viparspectra xs4000 to replace the v600. And as I understand it should be quite an upgrade. Thanks for any advice!

Flower Light
Do you think this would be a good flowering light (on a budget) for a 4’x4’x80” - 1000 watt (5 plants - indoors - all hybrids ... if that matters)

Efficient lighting
Keeping both 200w VEG and 300w FLOWER lights 24h is too expensive for my alien wallet. So I left the veg light under 12h/12h and flower on. Please share with me some of your past experiences and how can I save money and grow killer yields. 👋👽

Mars Hydro ts1000 info
Looking to upgrade my flower tent light to a Mars Hydro TS 1000, is this a good light for a 3x3 tent? It says coverage area 2.5x2.5. My tmlapy 1500w will be going in to the new veg tent. Also, is it safe to swap lights mid flower?

Found a cheap light that I think would be perfect in my small tent, would it?
Would this light be good to add to my setup? (60W 55 draw cob in a 40x40x120cm tent) ://i.imgur.com/VTayXRu.png 4500 Lumen 4000 or 6400 Kelvin 50 Watt (I already know there is much better, but know I am asking about this one)
