What is optimal lighting for 6x10x7.5ft flower room

St0ricstarted grow question 2 years ago

What would be optimal lighting for coverage in my 10ft×6ft×7.5ft flower room, 2 600w led blurples and 2 600w hps really doesn't cut it and I want to upgrade asap to avoid future overcrowding

I use the calculation of 30W per square foot. So for a 6x10 you need 1800W. Add another 600W HPS and you will be fine. Although, This will cause more power costs. Add a high wattage LED and improve you spectrum exponentially. I hope this helps, good luck and happy growing

Bad idea?Will a mars hydro TS1000 be too strong for a 60x60x140cm tent? I have been using a TS600 and TS1000 in tandem in a tent 4x too big for the light level, I have been growing strong and tasty buds but with low yields so downsizing my tent size to maximise the light.

Lighting cycle for VEG stage. Is 24x7 OK?Hi, Should I use the VEG lights 24x7 from the time I plant my seed until it's ready to bloom, or would something like 18 hours on and 6 hours off make more sense? Is there a "best practice" for veg lighting? It has worked for my first 3 grows. VIPARSPECTRA 600W LED Thanks, Mr.STM

Lux Meter and Hydroponics Who has experience with using LUX meters to position lights in various stages of hydroponic growth. I feel I am giving mine too much light, based on the readings, but don't want to pull them back. Currently 10" from the plants.
