you could get a nice 1000w led that would fit in a 4x4, but the purchase cost is going to be high. save 800W in the end. Also dimmers aren't bad from what I know, I don't fully understand why having one is out of the question. something like this could blast it away. ignore the c02 part of its name, stupid marketing. https://photontek-lighting.com/shop/xt-1000w-co2-pro-led/ Good Luck!

Shifting outdoor plants from outdoor to indoor So I was wondering if outdoor plants(week 2) getting regular sunlight (~12-13 hours) can be shifted indoors for faster growing (18/6 or 24/0 or 20/4)? Anyone tried before? it is safe? Will it cause to make them hermaphrodite?

Lighting question I am running the Viparspectra 450w LED as my light for 4 autos in a 2x4 space. I am worried this isn’t enough, especially because of its lower levels of red. Should I upgrade to something stronger like a Mars hydro 600 or 1000 before flowering start?Or if not Mars something else?

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
