Hi first time grower here. Been vegging 4 plants in 80cmx80x160 tent with 150W LED (Mars Hydro TS1000). Start of 2nd week flower today and I added another 150W LED. Could that potentially increase my yield? Thanks!

Hi For your 80x80 Tent one lightsource, in a good distance is totally enough if plants grow very dense, and your light dont spreadenough, you can add another light, but let both lights run only around 60 percent otherwise ladies get stressed

the LED is designed for an 80x80 so it should be sufficient what surprises me is the 150w, great savings I have a 270w lamp and the box is 2 meters high, if I leave the lamp too close I have problems with the apical buds, the power (I should reduce it a bit) creates plants with small apicals and the remaining flowers are much larger so if you add a lamp you need to reduce the power of both, increase fertilization, air circulation, and watering times and if you have the possibility, increase the CO2.... that's why I was saying to enhance the ventilation the increase in yield is still proportional to the box, normally I do 4 plants and more than about 100g per plant I can't do due to limited space

You don't need 2 in an 80x80. And no. Its not like where you c in the factory where they double the size the ppfd goes up. They are designed that way. The light/heat stress alone is not worth it. Though if you have some shading.. you can push 1 right to 1c side and vice versa and slowly start of with 80% at 40cm and then move down. But, in reality if I were you. Get another 80cm2. Then you'll have double the storage for plants. Good luck.
