2 lights dimmed will give you much better overall canopy coverage vs one light on full power in the middle. One light full power will create a hot spot directly underneath it with not so good side coverage. In a 120 x 120, bare minimum of 480w of light via quantum boards to obtain decent bud development ideally 640w. However, since your landlord is on to the increase in electricity usage, you can and I have flowered out autos on a 14/10 light schedule and still achieve great results. This will cut your electricity usage down 2.5 kw per day. If you adjust amount of time on, just stay consistent and slowly cut back the time daily. If you decide to dim the lights, I would go with 2 light sets and move them as close to the plants without burning them. If your dimming to 75%, try hanging at 25 to 30 cm

No im asking if i use both lights at %60 power would it be good enough for the girls? Or using 1 light at full power is better?

Eek.. should have got a quantum board from HLG. They're LED modules that perform like a metal halide, and they don't use much power.

"The real story with the 301H is that they are identical to the 301B. They are just marketed to different markets and their data is presented accordingly. They both have the same photon or luminous efficacy (depends how you want to look at it). There is no tweaking or special phosphor used, the anti sulphurization coating and stronger bind wires (which is key in many harsher environments, but especially horticulture) is the exact same on both parts. But since they were gaining so much traction in the horticulture market with the 561c and 301b years back, they decided to cater specifically to that market and give them a unique data sheet that works for the specific industry; micromoles rather than lumens for the case of the 301H.
