Good, yea rosenthal sAys 4x4 for 1000. Which is 16 sq Ft.
So with my dimensions I'll have 3.325x6.5 which is over 20 square feet.
Thanks for the reply

I would go with 6 600's. Better light coverage and lumen per watt. Could run 6 3x3 areas with a 4x6 area left over for gear.

I guess 4 1000s would work as well though:

I assume that you'd need to leave room to get into the room though. You should consider the square feet left, after you've taken away the path space. To me it seems like 3 1000s would fit well, in a row long ways, with a path along the side.

Thank you. I plan to run my ebb and grow with everything out of the room and soil, so it will be just plants and a couple fans. I already have m lights otherwise I'd consider the 600's.

Yeah I may go with 3, I'll have to see, I have the light though, plus 2 of my ballasts are digital so I can turn them down to 600

YOu can never have "too much " light.....lots of light = fat buds.

600W = care about your electricity bill
1000W = commercial grows and fatter buds!
