Far red and Infrared are different. Far red helps the plants wake up and start budding earlier. It seems the plants Photosystem II is especially sensitive to Far red light.

So what is 730nm considered?

My bad, it just says IR on the light, but it says 730nm right beside it lol

Ok, so I don't think I really would need that on my next light then eh?

a 320W driver with 4 cobs would do that area fine, ~$250

so what will be the best solution for 8 cob's per 4x4 tent?
2xHLG-185H-C1400B or 2xHLG-240H-C1400B? Maybe 2xHLG-320H-C2100A?
For example: MIGRO 600 has 3x250W 2100mA drivers with 6 cob's on small heatsinks and shows pretty nice PAR map on 4x4 tent...

id do 9 in a 4x4, more even coverage

3x 240 or 1x600W driver

How many Amps 600W driver? For 9 in 4x4 600W driver will be close to ~50%efficient build?
