New grow finally!! Auto #1 too many lumens..?

Spencerv · Dec 22, 2013

Hey guys!! I finally have a new grow that I can finish. I ordered auto #1 from hemp depot. I have a 12x12 box that I plan on having 6x23w lights bad maybe another 13. That's 1600 lumens each. So 9,600 lumens per foot. I read somewhere I should have 2,000-5,000. I'm confused?

Youre over-thinking it man. Theoretically you can have as many lights as you can fit in the cab as long as the temps stay in good conditions

so you have a 12x12 ft or 1x1 ft box? I guess in a 1x1 box you be able fit 6 cfls and grow an auto. Not sure how you'd fit 19 cfls and have room for a plant.

Sorry I had just just finished about a gram of dabs when I typed this. Yes, 1x1 foot. By extra 13 I mean watts as in another bulb I plan on putting below the scrog. My bad guys! Thanks a lot for the input!
