Autoflower led light too much??

[Lazylungs93]

I have purchased a led for my 30x30x60cm tent? (Yes I know, tiny ass set up). Never done before and purchased this led light. They claim 1500watt but hoping its not over qualified for the job. Please let me know what you think. Thanks.

Don't let the big numbers fool you. You should to be looking at ACTUAL WATTS and PPFD. If you read the details in the link you provided, you can see it's only 40watts. Don't want to be a dick here, but that light is a joke. Since you're growing in such a small space and as a rule of thumb you need 30-50watts per square foot, I say give it a shot if you're not willing to buy another light. Don't expect big yields though. Keep us updated and happy growing!

Thanks for the advice, I should have really done my homework before buying. What wattage fill spectrum led would you recommend for a 30x30x60 tent? It's only for one plant and not expecting wild results. Thanks

Return it. Get a spider farmer sf1000 if just 1 or 2 plants.

The lights mentioned above are great but I think they both have misread your post, thinking you're growing in a 30x30inch tent probably. If you're growing in a 30x30cm tent, the 40watt led you got will work just fine I assume. I haven't grown in such a small space before so I'm not 100% sure. If you're having troubles, you can add additional lighting, like a 20-30watt led/cfl bulb. Just make sure you grow the appropriate strain for your small space. No sativas, just an indica-leaning short autoflower. Also use short and wide pots instead of tall ones and most definetely do some research on Low Stress Training. God Bless.

Or the SF1000D I’m running it and it does about 3 Plants justice
Edit: if your on a budget get the SF1000D if you can spend a good buck go with the SF1000

Any-o-light will do .... just remember there's no replacement for horsepower but more horsepower.
