That’s a bit of an odd shape. You will need to spend more than 0 to do it right. But if money is an issues—- the mars lights are decent

Hmm I’d do 3x ts1000 They are 150 W each where as SF1000 is 100W each. Both good lights but you could get 3 and stay around 400 and you would easily be covering that area with max amount of light needed

I’ve basically got the same grow space 3 sf 1000 for veg and get another for flower that’s what Im doing atm keep n eye on my page I’m sorting the room out over the next week or so but I’m going with the sf 1000. Really well made and warranty on them as well so the lights are only getting better as well 10 plants under 400watts at its maximum. Can’t really complain

Hps mixed with mars hydro 600 yield?Hey all! So i been thinking about ways to cut heat of course lol. So I’m thinking about getting a mars hydro 600 and running it with my 400w hps at 250w on the dimmer. Do you guys think I will yield about the same as if I was just running the hps on super lumens?

Grow lamp setting veg or bloom or both?For my grow lamp settings this early on should I be using the VEG And Bloom spectrums simultaneously? Or just leave in Veg? Since these are Autos I wasn't sure if switching the spectrums was as important as maximizing light.

at the moment I'm using a 250W HPS and 2 40W CFL, this takes humidity down. When I will afford LEDs do you think that the humidity will stay as per night or drop down like maximum 10% or it will have same behavior as with hps/cfl combo? Thanks
