thsi would be a shame if its true as the light claims to cover 3 x3 no problems... I have found them quite upfront with their details so surprised this would be so far out of whack...
Help with choosing a Blackstar panel

I don't think they were dishonest at all. The light DOES cover a 3'x3'. I just doubt you'll get a good yield from using only 1 of them with no other light. Based on the growth I had at 3 weeks of 12/12, I predict that a skilled grower could pull about 5-6 ounces per harvest from a single XGS-190 over a 3'x3' canopy.
Obviously, we'll start to see more results as other XGS owners catch up to where I am with their grows. And once again, don't take what I say as hard science by any means. Everything I've said is based on my own brief experience as an XGS owner.

Not sure cause I have the 4 slot ion 8 (426w)that's a different one. This thing works amazing I will get at least half a pound from this harvest.

Yeah, I'm loving how Yodaweed and Gaius have become "credible" figures on the boards as both have only recently joined, and neither have yet to shared a picture of their grows.Ahh I See Brother Yodaweed Is The Resident Expert On Led's LMAO I Hate To Bust Your Bubble But My All White Panel Isnt An Area-51 And I Paid 75.00 Usd On Craiglist.Its Actullay An Aquarium Light
Both seem to be pretty anti A51, but to varying degrees, almost like a good cop/bad cop routine.
I smell something fishy and it's not the seaweed I fed my girls today.

I have nothing against A51 I am actually interested in this new light they have coming out in a few months I heard it's going to be white and red spectrum like the SGS. I am just not a fan of the XGS lamp.

So I just ordered a 300w panel from Ledgrowlightmanufacturer off ebay:

Also ordered a Secret Jardin 2.5 DR60 2x2x5.6 tent. The ebay wholesale dealer replied with the following:

Also ordered a Secret Jardin 2.5 DR60 2x2x5.6 tent. The ebay wholesale dealer replied with the following:
So that's approx 16-20in from the canopy which covers 4.3-4.4sq ft, so according to them I should need only one for a 2x2 tent.. just want to see what you guys think, should I get another one?

Yeah man, I saw a few grows with the DR60 and they are super skinny but I thought good enough for 2 plants, just a personal grow. If I get another tent in the future for a perpetual setup, it will defiantly be at least 3x3 and I can use the DR60 for a mother. Can't wait to see how these lights yield, if they're crap, it won't be too much of a waist since they're cheap!
