I ordered some lights that aren't nearly the right amount of lighting for my 4x4x6 tent. Im sending them back. Any recommendations for good lights to cover a 4x4x6 tent? I'm trying to fit 4 plants in there. Also im not rich lol and also im doing LEDs

It’s not the best for a 4x4 tent but I run a cmh 315 in mine with no problems. And I run 4 plant but I would recommend less next time I’m gonna do 2 and fill up the tent

I'd go QB over Mars

Mars are not Samsung diodes, I did hear their new one has them, the older diods, but better than Osram in most their lights

You also need to figure footprints of what the light covers

Most cover about 6" to each side of the bd itself

My frame is 3'x3' and puts out 500w in my 5x4 tent

The light is the Third most important factor of success (behind grower choices and genetics) and be 50% of your overall budget minimum.

What is your maximum budget that you are able to spend at one time on a light? You can buy them modularly and upgrade as you gather resources and that is a respectable option.

My max at one time is 250. 300 or so if I gotta grab 2. Also HPS is more costly by the month on my electric bill thats why I was trying to stick with LED. But I will sacrifice if needed. Best to do it right or not at all
