Wanting to build 4x4 6"11 height or 5x5 tent or 7"11 with there is so much conflicting information when it comes to best quality lights as of-course results can be

subjective have some experience but am certainly no expert so I'm keen to get some expert opinions.

What are my options for maxing out my limited space.

Budjet 3-4k.

Opinions on Black dog LED or is this really outdated & overpriced tech with spectacular marketing?

with their Phytomax-2 1000 LED they achieve 3p + in a 4x4 space which seems massive considering the space.

Is anyone getting large yields in limited space with LED

Other brands i have looked at are HLG , Fluence, Spydr, Scynce, Gavita

Crudlord I grow with a Black Dog LED 1000 watt - it's great, hard buds right to the edge of the tent.

I didn't just buy a light, I adopted a whole new growing style, as can be seen in the Black Dog video section.

Think in terms of cost of light divided by the number of grams you produce, then Black Dog shines.

Cant say I would trust black dog. Overpriced company like KIND led. HLG is probably top of the line and saving cash over gavita. Same diodes being used. 3+ a light for the blackdog? I dont buy that.

I'm a total amateur who's just building my first indoor grow (4x4), just waiting on the tent now.

I over research stuff and I kept coming back to HLG.

In the end I went with the HLG 650R.

I won't be able to blame the gear, that's for sure.

How big is your space and what do you average with the black dog if there marketing is accurate the price is reasonable.

This is what i expected more of there are a-lot of black-dog LED critics is there any proof of HLG outperforming Black-dog in anyway or is simply as the tech is unaffordable and expensive considering efficiency & output?

My biggest concern is maxing out a small space

I grow in a 4'x4' tent and my last two averages have been 740 grams per harvest, dried to 62% h.

I've got some great clones growing now and I'm hoping for +800 grams for this harvest.

Check out my grow linked at the bottom of this post.

They'll just send you parts to fix it yourself. There are a few leds that are tunable.
