you can do good things with it in a 2x2. it’s better to get what you need upfront than to buy several others that are inadequate.

How does it drain on the light bill? Just a typical slight bump or should I get a part time job to cover that expense haha

i don’t know what your power company charges you or your specific situation but a 135w light shouldn’t cause life changes.

I was just going cheap to start out wasn’t really well informed just trying stuff based off YouTube videos hahaha but it’s looking like I need to spend like a good $100 on one which is fine if it’s going to give me the results I’m looking for

Don't sweat it, happens to more than would be willing to admit it. The HLG lights are great if you have the budge to explore them. More up front costs on decent equipment will make you much happier in the end so I would explore the HLG that was suggested. You can also get 10% off by using the RIU10 coupon.

You think I need 2-3 even in a 2x2 space? If they are that weak I think I rather just one that’s stronger vs having 3

You could also think about the slightly smaller hlg 100, runs about $150. A little pricer than the spiderfarm/mars hydro, but seems superior quality and service is actually offered. Good luck.

Thanks for all the info everyone who contributed! I’ll be checking in regularly
