    Thoughts on this light?

    The previous light I purchased was underpowered. Will this light be enough to grow one auto flower? Maybe two if I was to push it a little bit?

    ​​​​​​​If it's enough for one I'll purchase it. Another question I had was is the spectrum complete enough for the plant? I wanna make sure it's enough to grow a decent plant. Thanks everyone.

    It says that it's 270 watts of blurple leds.
    That should be enough power to flower about 5 sq ft of canopy, so it should do a nice single or a pair of smaller girls.

      I took a look. The only thing that stands out to me is that they state that it has 120 x 10w leds. 120x 10 = 1200 which is why it states 1200w . The actual power draw is 265w. 265w divided by 120 (the amount of leds) is 2.2w so its my understanding that those 10w leds are actually running at 2.2w. I think that's how it works with leds I'm sure someone here will correct me if i'm wrong or am missing something.

        That's all beyond me, I have no idea how any of that works lol. 265w should be enough to grow a plant or two from what I've seen so I think I'm gonna give it a shot.

          Very glad to hear it should be enough for a plant or two. Will the fact it's a 'blurple' light negatively affect the plant? Will the buds be airy and loose? How did you think the spectrum looked when you checked it out?
