6+4 or 1000

Six Big Cheese, 1.2m2, 1 600 allready, seems a bit dimmer than 1 would like. Add a 400 or 600 or Upgrade to 1k? Monster growers and vets input will be very much appriciated, so will any other views. Thanks in advance.

Add another 600W. You can get two 600W lights closer than one 1000W and cover more area.

so assuming the nutes and such are under control, how much do you think the extra six or four would bump up the yield. and to add to that i like the coverage, and closeness thoughs you have stimulated.

If you are growing big plants you want 1000W better penetration.
If you are growing SoG or Scrog I'd recommend 600W since penetration is not needed.

I would prefer two 600 rather than 1000w I am currently growing with a 1000 and a 600 and would have just prefered to get two 600 for the savings in electric and so I can have them closer and cover more area

nothing better than tried and tested, so that seals the deal for me. Canopys should be kept supercropped and as even as possible at all times, the six cheese virtually cover 1.2m2 so two sixes seem to be the way forward in this case. cooltubes= 10-12 inch from tops = good idea
