2ft hood in 2ft tent?

[Doug Dawson]

No, it's not about led vs hps. It's about 150W hps being too small to be useful for anything and 1000W being a fire hazard in a 2x2 tent. If it was a 5x5 tent that 1000W would be great, but not for a 2x2

I totally disagree. My first plant was a Northern light auto grown under a 150 watt blurple and it gave me 3.5 oz of great bud. 150 watt HPS would be fine in a tiny 2x2 tent. As you can see by my previous post I do agree 1000w in that space would likely burn the house down.

150W blurple would be equivelant of about a 300W hps.

Even with a massive hood? I have super XL one. And another HPS, but idk if that would be overkill.

Yes, even with a massive hood. 150W hps simply doesn't put out enough light. I have seen people have some success with 250W hps, but it's still not great. What other hps light do you have that you are referring to?

If I could have the grow that I wanted I prob would be running de hps.

Oh, they're both 1000w. I dont have any 150w ones.

I like your style - more light!

However, I think 2x2 is waaay too small to accomodate the heat on a non-cooled 1000w HPS.

 

[EasyGrowerUk]

Lol, sorry bud but 1000 watt GPS will do a 4x4 or 5x5 but not a 4x8.

I Disagree,
1kw de adjust a wing fully open could cover a 8ft x 4ft flower room (stadium scrog).

 

[EasyGrowerUk]

315 cmh would be a great light for a 2ft x 2ft

Fair enough, everyone is entitled to their opinion. I stand by it though, 1 1000 watt fixture will not be adequate to cover an 8 foot long space.

You sure won't get lost with a 1000 watt GPS, lol.

 

[maranibbana]

Sure, if you're going to toss a frozen pizza in there.

im gonna try this

I need to get me one of them 1000W GPS's

 

[GrowBeyond]

I tried CMH at first, still got some bulbs I couldn't return. I think I heard they were cooler, but without air cooling it was a nightmare compared to 4x the watts but with a cooled hood running HPS

 

[maranibbana]

All about the LED Babi

LOL, try Amazon.

 

[Kerovan]

Oh, they're both 1000w. I dont have any 150w ones.

If all you have are 1000W lights and a 2x2 tent you should just get a cheap led on Amazon and put in there. Even the cheap ones like Viparspectra are good enough for a 2x2 tent.

 

[its.always.420]

Oh. Must be why the commercial growers are still running HPS. Cuz the game is so cold.

Speaking on the 150w version sir. Plz read the whole statement next time.

I get that but why is a smaller version of an HPS no good?

1st Spiderfarm 2x2 tent with New SF1000 w/dimmer grow

Happy Thanksgiving folks. A couple weeks ago @Spiderfarmerled reached out to me and asked if I would do a indoor grow review of this set up. That's risky on their Behalf as I am new to indoor growing lol. Thats some solid belief in the set up if you ask me. Here's the set up. Spiderfarm 2x2...

www.rollitup.org

If you're in the states the light is $150 on their website.
