anything else I would need in addition? Do they need to routed to one power source or something?

Also is too possible to veg w these lights if I need the flexibility?

If you scroll down on that page, they have the recommended drivers listed based on how many and what wattage you want to run them at.

If I’m not mistaken those are just the Led's and heat sink you would still have to buy a driver, there’s not a lot of tech info on their site but I’m sure they would all daisy chain together and then plug into the driver then 1 plug to the wall,
The spectrum looks fine for full cycle

The 96 is pretty much a total diy. You will have to do the wiring, spec the driver, and come up with a hanging solution.
The 360 elite kit is still available from a few retailers, but you would need 2. https://growershouse.com/horticulture-lighting-group-hlg-elite-360w-led-kit.

will the hlg-600 54b be enough for 5... I understand it will it will cover 4-96s..... but 5 96s on hug-600 545b

If that's the recommended voltage ( haven't checked) then yeah, it just shares the current out amongst the number of qb96s, they will be slightly more efficient.

Odering 4 HLG 96s. and two 320 drivers. This gives me the ability to add 1 or 2 more 96s im thinking....

Just need the wiring now ya? I think ill wait on ordering that until everything arrives and I can blueprint the tent and see how I want to structure it...

CTGrow... appreciate your invite.... I was dam close to grabbing another 1000 hps and one of them ac/humidity inline fans for roughly the same price... Im glad I went in this direction..

just to clarify.... in terms of flower... the 600 and 4 96s.. are the same thing? Thanks again man

Yeah about the same... you would use the same driver. If you see my grow I have 4 qb96 elite covering a 4x4 area in a 5x5 tent... and then 3 qb288 covering the extra foot or so. The 288s I have are the older ones.


Personally i would go for the elites coz you can manoeuvre them separately

Thats a good point thank u. I could run them in one of the 3x3 if I stick w 4 hlg96s

or bounce up to the 4x4 maybe even 5x5 if I end up w 6.

If im understanding these specs correct I could bump up to three hlg96s per 320h54a driver without a problem...??

I may dedicate a grow to the QBs clone or seed to chop.... im curious how many t5 6500s are really necessary for cloning and popping.... I have the 4 ft obviously but just thinking about dropping down to 1-2 rods for germination station? That cool?

anyone know a simple formula for popping and cloning light requirements
