Advice needed LED Cob

Hi guys,

Im thinking of getting a tent 120x120x200.
How many plants can be placed in such a tent?
Are those lights any good?
Should I use 1 per plant?

Thanks

1. Ok
2. Depends 2-4 is what I would do unless doing SOG.
3. NO
4. You should look at getting 600 watts or better for 120cmx120cm (actual watts not advertised)

Im powering this with 12v batteries 200ah in parallel, 600w per hour is too much for me.

What lights could u reccomend for 4 plants? With the lowest watt intake? Or maybe should I go for smaller tent for 2 plants?

You should shoot for 35 to 40 watts per sq ft of lighting with led for proper flower. A 2x2 with an 150 watt light or so

Could you post some budget compoments? Would help a lot

inches or centimeters? haha

guessing centimeters.

4 plants in 3 gallons for hydro, 4 plants in 5 gallons for soil.

480w true power draw high efficiency LED or a 600w HPS.

Budget? With LED, if its cheap. It don't work for crap. A gimmick.

When you read, "35 to 40 watts per sq ft of lighting with led for proper flower. A 2x2 with an 150 watt light or so". It's LED lingo meaning you're going to have to pay up for the real deal. Exspect a starting budget of $300USD. Then after time adding to it.

You can have a light rack that cost $500-$1000+. A dollar at a time.

Below is the basic COB pod. How many you need depends on how much light you need. Get two pods or build them. A small external dimmer driver. Aluminum metal from the store. Stuff to hang it.

Start at two pods. Get another two later and so on.
