I bought a 240 watt 7 band led from htg a few months ago. Insane for veg. Just put 8 clones under it and they have responded awesomely! However I bought it as a supplement to my 400 watt hps in my flowering room. Not as happy. Light penetration was great so it wasn't that. Plants just truely liked the hps way better. So overall I would stand behind the light itself and htg is awesome. 2 panels will run u about 500 us. Good luck!
