Opinions please

In my Auto room I have 4 300w leds I am thinking about adding two more in the middle, Yesterday I filled 7, 3 gallon bags with kind and Happy frog with worm casting that I added anyways all the space on the floor is filled in. If I put two more 300w lights in the middle that would make 1800 watts 6 actual ,or do you think 1 600w light in the middle would be better

Maybe- the issue you would have to look at- the recommended distances from LED to plant, as they tend to change once you get to 600w.
1 x 600w would produce less heat than 2x 300w, if that's an issue.
I run a 2x4 tent with 300w,480w,240w in a straight line.
The 240 & 480 are switched grow/bloom so I adjust based on the plants I am growing at different developement stages (seed-flower) in a single tent.

2 lights will give you more coverage than the single. If you go with the single 600 it will likely need more distance from the plants. I figure you know this already. Being a former jarhead myself, I would go with the dual 300s just so everything will be the same height and distance.

I'm with Madman, I'd go with the 2-300watt leds. Army grunt, not Jarhead grunt.But I liked all friendlies.

2 300 watts will fill the space better my2c Semper fidelis Mack

Potted you must be old school I thought I was the only one to still call brothers Mack lol

I agree better coverage with 2 300s, and you have one as a backup if one fails.

I have another opinion on a Jarhead named General Smedley Butler. He had lots in his jar.

Hello my friend , everyone has thr on way on doing things but i would do 2 300watt , growers love from the heart

[oldjarhead100]

Thats what I was leaning to but that 600 sure looks good lol 2 300 watt ordered

I bet they help alot.

I think you be good to add another light, when the plant really start to fill out the space and then for flower. Now I been experimenting with cob (chip on board) leds. They are a fuller spectrum but give off white light. I new to them. If you add 1 of these it will add white light and make total spectrum fuller. Here is a pic of my cobs with old burple led mixed in 2x4 tent with plants outside tent TheGreenGiggler

Love the cob! Check the 600 watts at timber. They are pretty good, but pricey... which brand do you have?

[Jibblerjoe]

I got 3 Vero29 3000k 90cri driven 2100ma dimmable 210 watts at wall. I built my own frame and wired it. Was not difficult.

6 cob vero with frame....no metal fab or wiring skills.
