i have a 8 ft x 8 ft room ( a bit smaller actually) with 3 - 135 watt agromax (i beleive, or some european company thats legit) and 4- 135watt chinese made (decent, but you can tell the difference) UFOs. they are 7 band panels. i'm also using some filtered red LED bulbs (~15W) and a few 68 watt CFLs where i feel some of the girls are being a bit shafted. i got 13 plants (all definite females) and it seems they will use every micron of space in the room towards harvest. do i have enough light? i am prolly gonna build a light mover for some of em especially if that'll make the difference. im 5 weeks into flower and seem to be doing iight. how much more do they grow from here btw?

you want ~ 50w/sqft, better still cft. I use secondary led lighting @ ~ 1 ft below the top lighting leds

Now most led mfgs lie about actual wattage, so get yourself a watt meter to test the panels
