Hey guys and gals, I want to upgrade the lights in my 2x2 tent for my next (2nd) grow. I currently have a 170w Chinese light w/ 2 COBs + 24 LEDs.
I can't decide whether to go the easy route with the HGL 100 V2 kit, or spend a little more cash and effort on a QB96 Elite V2 DIY setup.
Im thinking benefits of the HLG 100 over the QB96 would be price, a larger footprint, narrower form factor good with the limited height of my grow area, and it's plug n play.
Disadvantages are the fixed 100 watt output, no 3500K option ideal for veg/flower (?).
I'd like to just get the HLG 100 (3000K), but only if I wouldn't be sacrificing quantity and quality at harvest.
Thoughts? Anyone here have experience with both lights?
