any suggestions on how I can fit a 90w UFO in with this grow?

I have the UFO and want to use it to get the maximum light possible, but I just cant figure out how I would set it up. the 180w led is 19" x 13" x 2.5" in a 24" x 24" tent.

Maybe put the light on one of the walls of the tent facing the other direction? I don't really know.. any help would be great

I would make a mount on 2-3 sides and move it 2-3 times a day for equal light to all areas.

Sticky hangers they sell that stick to walls that can hold like a crap load of weight. Should be able to find them at home depot or something.

or holes and zip ties?

I would use it for supplemental lighting under a counter somewhere.

I only have my tent going on.

and for the sticky hangers I will check them out. Do I need to move the light 2-3 times a day? or would switching its spot each day be sufficient. I'm not sure if I'll always be home to move it.

ive often thought about mounting an over head hid , and a side mounted light . using the excess light to power a solar pannel(s) to drive a small motor that in turn would move a platform (perfectly balanced) with plants on top. theoreticly the plants would get full light penetration . just an idea that would be nice to see someone with more money then me attempt.
