Yes, mine arrived a couple days ago. Gonna be a couple weeks before i have it up and running though! Still gotta buy a Light System and another atmospheric controller, and a fan and carbon filter. It's all good though, i got time since i still need to germ some seeds and veg for awhile.

Id say a lumatek 1000w dimmable ballast with a big daddy reflector and your golden... Wana be bad ass put the 1000w hps bulb in a fresca sol inside of the big daddy and run it 6" away and grow some monster buds

if you plan to use up all of that space (4x4-5x5) then get the 1,000.
If you need room for equip, nutes, etc, and only plan to use 3x3-4x4, you can get away with a 600.

600 will be easier on temps and easier on the bill.
But if you can control temps on the 1,000 you should get more buds

600 in summer 1000 in winter. That's what I did. So spen a extra 60 bucks and get a dimmable ballest

Bump thread... did you set up tent? Any co2 in there?
?

if supplementing with led u can get away with the 600. You gotta get an air cooled hood regardless and a cheap duct fan from home depot to suck that hot air out. you can keep those air cooled hoods very close to ur plants...almost touching them to be honest. i have 3 4x4 tents so i can probably offer up alot of help if u have more questions. i pull 400-500 grm per tent with 1000k and 12 ladies

Why choose?
