Can I stack 2 lights at once and use them together???

[adam2706]

I currently have 2 array style lights (300W & 265W) and noticed that I can stagger the light bars, stack them together, and use them both at once in my tent during flower. I have C02 supplementation, sort of (it's the largest exhale bag size being used in my 4x3).

Has anyone tried this? Any reason it would be an issue?

I have done this and there is no reason for there to be an issue. It's just more photons.

Per the photo below, my veg light is a Growcraft X2, a 2 bar light with a gap in the middle that's about a foot wide. I have a Vipar Spectra XS-1500 that I use as a "fill light". I slid a piece of press board between the driver and the top side of the light board and that held the light in place.



Re. the Exhale bags - unless you're in a sealed environment, you're going to have a hard time keeping CO2 levels elevated. A CO2 meter would be money well spent and you'll also want to make sure that the other inputs are optimized or you won't be getting much out of the additional CO2.

Yes, you can
