Both, a main net to level and space out the canopy and a 2nd net for support if required.

Thank you! That makes sense!

He said he's using both the 2nd just hadn't switched on.

Yes and the one on wasn't even eliminated fully. Tried for a pic before it was all on. So hard to get good pics full light.

That makes more sense now. Anyway hes using only the left one so 315W at the end…

No they both come on. Was just the timing of the pic

What size is your room, a 4x4?
720w is ample if it is.

It's a 5x5 and I only have 2 of the 315w cmh

Both. Sometimes I use up to 4 layers of netting. I always get the netting with small squares. The bottom two layers are to get the canopy flat, and the top layer or two if more for support.

You can see the third layer of net here below the top colas of Wedding Cake at around 5 or 6-weeks flowering..

I use a 5x5 but I leave some space for ventilation around the screen and to keep the canopy off the wall.

Don't underestimate 630w of hid light.

Who wants to teach me how to get an even canopy? My shit just becomes a jungle! I tried topping one and it became just as tall? I get decent (in my opinion) looking buds but so sick of wiring them down. I'm sure all that bending causes a lot of stress

Your plants are competing for light. One plant is more mature and the younger ones have to stretch and compete for the light... your mh lights don't help as the light comes from a single point.

The hat shouldn't be too much for that space from those lights unless you live in a hot place.

My tips would be... do a run from cuttings from the same plant... have less plants and flower earlier... and top and lst your plants with netting

Yeah I'm in Phoenix so it's a hot place. Thanks for the feed back I appreciate it!

If you top early and keep tying the main shoots down it’ll help.

if you keep it low and wide it’s amazing how all the little branches take off when you flip.
