From hid? CMH? Quantum boards? Cfl?
Btw are you worried you can't harvest much from 135w in a 60x60 tent?
Best led for 2x2,5?

That's a little much 30-40w/sqft is plenty

Dimmable 550 HLG V1 (max 480w) I’ll put it on 360w. For a 3x3 tent (3000k)

I’ll put some pictures on here if I’ve got them, about 2-3 working days! Got 4 38L airpots and the tent is from gorilla! I’m using cana terra professional soil, maybe mixing it with somthing else. Some soil advise? And do I need stuff to feed my plants or is this not really nessisary?

They started selling quantum strips (Samsung) in fixtures in Ontario. True Northern Lighting is selling fixtures of 238 watts (recommended for 2 x 4) for 300 bucks and 476 watts (4 x 4) for 600 bucks CDN (225 and 450 USD respectively). Samsung strip fixtures are cheaper to make but these come plug and play ready. Things are changing in lighting as fast as the legalization.
In a small tent (2 x 2 to 1.5 x 3) i would think the 135 QB would really rock it. I have one in mine and will try it next indoor grow after things cool down a bit.

Open a thread and you will get advices on the run. I am not a soil grower but in Europe we are pretty limited compared to us growers.. Get any commercial soil to start with and a grow-bloom formula, a microbes products and some molasses.

Amare SE-220/50, just don't use the lenses cuz you have only 5' high. Has a nice veg spectrum, & good cobs & drivers. Think they're running Citis now.
That would be a real nice light for that space IMO, owning a bunch of they're line. Like 25-30% off RIU too. 5 yr full.
Haven't read through unfortunately but good luck man!

Dont be afraid to start off dimmed and bump her up slowly. Thats a lot of light!

Thats WAY more light than a 3x3 needs. 260W kit would be a better fit, IMO.

Thats what i thought. Knowing what my 2x 260w kits can do in 16 square feet.
But then again @Moflow had a mate running two HLG550s in a 4x4!!! (mentalist)

I can dim it down, the price was just too good so I wasn’t able to decline haha
I will do about 36” 50% during veg and 24” 75% during flower, sounds good?

Honestly I'd be surprised if you can do 75% power without over stressing them. I'd be looking to move to a 4x4.I can dim it down, the price was just too good so I wasn’t able to decline haha
