What's your $$$ for the light? You might need a bigger fan for exhausting & temp control.

Go 200 watt it is inexpensive still in electric usage and adequate to flower

There are some nice led lights that don't cost too much $$, check this thread

If you can though, get the best light you can afford. You never know when you might run a few more plants or buy a bigger tent. I made that mistake and spent far more than I needed too upgrading time and time again.

Keep in mind though, this was grown with 11w/m² in a 2x4 (the equivalent of 176w in a 4x4), so it is "possible" to get away with less light if growing autos, but definitely not with photos.


With autos you can get away with 500-600umol over 20hrs for a decent DLI, whereas a photo would need nearly twice that to get the same DLI.
