I only had to wait about a week for them to restock when I bought mine. I think you'll enjoy the light one way or another so I endorse your experiment.
You didn't even try to comprehend what I said. Nobody said buy the most expensive. If you can buy junk for $100 or literally mow 2 fucking lawns on a Sunday afternoon and buy quality for $185 but you can't be bothered to wait, that demonstrates impatience and lack of foresight. Period. And...
No offense, you seem like a nice person, but this mindset is the reason the majority of first time growers have failures and give up. If you can't be bothered to wait until you are ready to do something to the best of your ability you can expect disappointing results. Growing high quality...
As small of a space as you are working with you could literally save up and extra 30 bucks and grab the 135w version of the HLG kit that Johnny recommend. I promise you it will crush any pre-built chinese junk lights.

You can (and I do) run your grow room a bit on the dry side, say 45% to 55% IF you keep your temps on the lower side. Say 72 to 74 f. To answer your original question, I'd keep my day time rh a bit lower and make sure that you still have adequate air exchange during lights off. I set my...
Sup folks.
About to start my first run under my new QB. It's the 135w 288 kit from HLG. I'm going to be running one plant under it in a small space (about 2x2x5) from start to finish.
Wondering what wattage people have had success dimming it to for seedling stage as well as what height to run it...
@sunni I'm going to move the original post or two in this thread into HLG's custom LED thread as its already active and seems to contain similar discussions so feel free to delete this post if you want. I know double posting is a no no... please no spankings.
7x7 is going to take a lot of light regardless of what type you go with. When I ran HPS I always had a 1000w every 4x4 or so. So if I were to run a 7x7 (and assuming I had good airflow and ac) I'd probably run 2 1000w side by side, or if I really wanted to pack the light in I'd do something like...
