just after some advice im currently thinking of buying a bigger tent 1.5m×1.5m×2m for 3 plants at a time ive got a hlg 100v2 light and a mars hydro ts 600 they both say they cover 2ft×2ft flowering so used together technically 4ft×4ft i was wondering would these 2 lights be uo to the job??? Thanks in advance

This guy above me is right, it will only cover a 2x4 (8sq ft) area. you need a 320W/240W QB for the other 8sq ft. Doesn’t have to be QB, but that’s the best lights you’ll find

30-35 watts a square foot for led is what u should aim for the 600 only has like 100 watts I think.
