100W full spectrum enough for 2 plants in a 80x80x160cm tent. Should I get a 300W instead?
fuckitimhighstarted grow question 4y 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.

If I move 3wk old S.Diesel & Critical from 18hrs💡indoors to outdoors where they'll get +/-11hrs direct🌞. Is there still a risk of them going into flower even though they're still babies? I really don't want this to happen. They'll be in the woods so no chance to add extra light5y ago
