Led question

This question has a few parts. Ok so I have two 450w LED lights currently sitting over one plant in 3rd week of flower. My grow tent is 48x24x36 mylar. Do I have enough light and if so how many other plants can I keep under that amount of light. Second part to the question is do I use both the veg and bloom switch or veg for veg and bloom for bloom? Thanks in advance for any help.

What lights are they? Take pics. Also, what components come on in your fixture when each switch is turned on?

Lights are out right now but I will grab a picture from amazon. They are viparspectra 450w. When veg is on its pretty much blues and whites and in bloom its reds and yellows. I was told that using both in flower fill grow better bud but I like to hear from people that have experience, but sadly it seems like most people are using hps.

I use this exact one. You only have to run Veg On/Bloom Off if you're concerned for ekectricity, but at 206w max? You can run both on and keep it full spectrum.

I have two fairly big plants under one 450w. Going to get a second and run 4 at once.
If I am gathering what you are saying I can grow 8 plants under those 2 lights? Does that also mean I have to much light on 1 plant?

I would try 2-4 for now and after you have something to smoke, see what ekse you can do with it. And, yeah, your plant isn't going to take all that light in, so some of that light/electricity is being wasted.
