Almost 1000% sure you wont have enough light there bro.

1000w full spectrum leds are typically not 1000w or even close.

If you tell me the exact lights your using I can look them up and get back to you with what space they will cover or with how much more light you need.

Well sorry to let you down, there isn't a shit bit of useful info on those lights, normally even the shittest LEDs give the power consumption , but these don't even give that basic info.

It may say on the back of the unit what it consumes or if you happen to have a kilowatt meter you can plug them into then I can say what they will cover.

Problem is it could be anything from a 130w light to a 300w light.

One site claims they cover 4x4 flower, another site says they cover 3x3 flower , I think you will be lucky if they cover 4x4 between them in flower. But without knowing the power draw I cant say for sure.
 
Yea because im waiting on my seeds from humboldt and i figured 2 1000w lights in a 8ft LONG N 6FT HIGH would be sufficient any other recommendations for the price of 100-150$

You would think it would be enough, but that's the way they market them and unfortunately its not the reality.
It sucks that's how these companies play ball but its the way they get your attention and your money.

Honestly the best thing you can do with that budget and that space is get a couple of 600w hps. Or 2x 1000w hps.

If your only doing 4 plants you can concentrate on just lighting up half your 8x4. That's plenty , you can always reassess the situation when you got your first crop done.

I was growing very well in my 3X3 with the Mars Hydro TSW2000 if you're looking for something you can buy off of Amazon. The Spider Farmer SF-2000 is the other good "retail" LED light.

If you were thinking the Bestiva 2000w, I'd spend a few more bucks and get something better.

Just my .02
