I was hoping you guys could answer my questions. I know nothing about this stuff so bear with me.
I’m trying to figure out a few things regarding building my own lights for flowering, I have a 4x6 area that I was going to fill with 4’ strips of lm561c. (is this the same as Samsung F Series S6?)
My questions were,
How many 4’ strips would I need to reach 30w/sq.ft in a 4x6 space?
How many drivers would I need and what models? Would it be possible to have dimmable drivers at half power and still reach the desired 30w/sq.ft while staying relatively cool?
Is a 50/50 ratio of 3000K and 3500K strips okay or is there a better ratio?
Would it be beneficial to add any Cree lighting strips if possible?
Would this be more cost efficient than running a 1000w hps and blaring the AC?
Thanks so much!
