4-6# would be the top end of the goal plan...

realistically, 1lb per light.

well first are you scroging...? and how high from the screen in the lights..? your screen sshould be more like 3 by 6 or 4 by 6 not 5 by 5..that will be a waste of light.... but 2 600s over an 4 by 8 ebb and flow with 128 plants can plus around 3 lbs....if i were you...get some movers..and do the stager setup with the aro setup to get more sqf out of it...

I will be scroging and I have eight babies on 4x4 aero tray in 3" net cups with coco liner and hydroton. I will be building a screen today that will sit over the tray at 8-10 inches I will probably do a 6x4 as well(natural high) instead of a 5x5. the lights are 2 600 watt hps with mh conversion bulb for veg. and hps for flower that are ac by a 6 in vortex fan vented to the attic so I have them 30 in away from top now but will lower as plant and root systems develop to get as close as I can what do you suggest? also there is a chiller keeping water temps to 70 and ac keeping room at 77

well soo you only have 8 plants in your whole 36 site unit? how you you have it configured? one plant per aro tube? u need to get me a pic....and as for the two 600s...i woud build like a 6 by 3.3 foot screen...a 4 foot wide may even be pushing it more...what is your strain? but you should go for a lb + a light....
