Lights are as close as 10 inches to the top of canopy at 340 watts. Only 2 plants in this 4x4 tent. Organic soil grow running Purple Dream from Greenpoint Seeds. I usually defoliate a lot more than this, hopefully they stop stretching because I am running out of height!

Was messing around in the flower tent a little bit today and decided to hang my HLG 260W V2 RSpec vertically to hit the lower growth. I dimmed the HLG light all the way down but all in all there is still over 400W of LEDs blasting at these 2 girls.

3 fans + an exhaust fan running in the tent, maintaining around 76 degrees now. How much light is too much?

Those are the double row Influx Linear line. 96 diodes for under 8 bux each (after the f'n tarrif) is still pretty good. I penciled out a 480W build earlier that came in well below a buck a watt....

First and foremost nice build!!!! Now on to the Q and A I am slowly looking into leds
For a build is the list below the only things needed?
Does the driver have to be programmed or is it like a conventional ballast plug n play
The Strips how do you get that nice spectrum of colors
more question to come. Your build was 4 hundred plus dollars. Is your light more powerful that the typical store bought light and does it have different funtionality
