fuckitimhighstarted grow question 3 years ago

So, I bought this light, it's a 100W full spectrum grow light. But I think I might've bought it too hastily. I want to ask you guys before I return it though. Do you think I should get a 300W instead? Planning on growing 2 auto plants ScrOGed.

You would want a 300W for a 3x3 tent. A top range 100W LED light would cover a 2x2. But a mid-lower range 100W LED would only cover 1-1.5 squared.

I’m with team buy the best damn light your budget can afford you. Your plants are depending on you to make the sun’s rays. Cheap lights make junk weed. You need something that can push 900 PPFD/PAR minimum. Preferably something with a dimmer. Every other grower makes a good point here too. Good luck 🤙

Always want to go with the biggest light you can get. Remember if the light is to intense you can always dim it down or rise it up higher from plant canopy.

What sized space? I think you could do it with the 100, but you'd be way happier with 300w.

Personally I would get the biggest I could afford. Light is everything in the marijuana grow.

What % to keep lights at during late veg My question was around what power % I should have my lights at? My light is 300watts so I am assuming 50% = 150watts? Is this enough to continue vegging my plant? I have noticed the growth isn't as vigorous.

Doubling light/adding a panel in flower Adding a second light panel-- any tips? Will it be too much? I've been using a viparspectra p1000 in my 2x3ish closet and it's done me well up to this point. Today I've installed a second led panel (not as good as vipar). Wondered if it'll be too much?
