@Paraz, Gotcha! Free lights are always a good start :smile: But yeah – 120W unknown-brand LEDs might do the job in early veg, but they usually struggle to deliver dense buds in flower. Weak penetration and lower efficiency can hold things back. I’m currently using a 300W Lumatek ATS Pro in my main 90x90 cm tent, and it’s doing great for flowering – strong intensity and uniform coverage. For veg, I’ve got a second box 80x80 cm with a 150W budget LED, just to pre-grow before flipping to the main tent. If you’re thinking about upgrading, I’d recommend: • For a 80x80 cm tent: go for a light around 200–240W • For 100x100 cm: look for something 300W+ • Make sure it has good diodes (Samsung LM301, Osram reds) and at least 2.5 µmol/J efficiency Brands like Lumatek, Spider Farmer, Mars Hydro, Sanlight are solid. If you tell me your grow space and budget, I’ll gladly help you pick the right one! :bulb::seedling:

@Paraz, Haha yeah man :smile: I think your light might be holding her back a bit – it makes a huge difference. This one’s been bulking up like mad – some colas are thick as my forearm :rolling_on_the_floor_laughing: And what’s even crazier – I’ve been running her under 12/12 for the past 4 weeks because my RS11s are in flower. As long as it smokes nice in the end, it’s all love – but yeah, good light is a game changer :fire::muscle:
