5x5 room

So although I have a 5x5 room I would like to scrog few plants and just utilize it for 2x5 to start with. I have some ahelving built on the other side already for supplies and a small seed starter spart. I was looking at lights and thought this would fill the area I’m after, budget is always an issue,, but what do you guys think?

To get the coverage footprint of a 5x5 grow area you would need the ts 3000. I know it's a couple hundred dollars more but in the long run you will be thankful you did. With the sp 250 you would need two in order for your coverage. If you're on a budget look into MH, HPS. With the 600w fixture, ballast and bulb you're about $200 Give or take. a 1000 watt light will cover about 7x7 feet of growing area. A 600 watt will cover 6x6 feet, a 400 will cover 4x4 feet, a 250 will cover 3x3 feet and a 150 will cover 2x2 feet.

That's incorrect. For HID lamps:

- 1000W: 5x5'
- 600W: 4x4'
- 400W: 3x3'

I really want to stick with led,s if possible, even though my room is 5x5 I was really only going to use like 21/2 x5 for grow space if that makes sense?

As @Jcooll362 said, you would need 2 of those to cover that area. You should build something with strips for that space. 4ft or 2ft side by side would work great
