I have 3 3x3 trays that I'm wondering what lighting setup I should use. They are in a room that they are pushed in the corner so they make a right angle. Basically in an L shape if that makes sense. What would be the best light configuration to use like this? I run sog so the plants don't get...

Hmmm ok. Gave me some food for thought...

Looking for suggestions on light configuration over a 4x4 tray for vegging. It will be 3x75 watt 3590s. They only veg to about 12" or so for sog. If anyone can point me in the right direction or any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

i run sog so i dont really need the plants too big, but i do want them to veg fairly quickly. does anyone have a suggestion on a configuration for the 3 lights over a 4x4...? thanks for the help. im still trying to learn the fastest i can in regards to LEDs

fug... i already ordered two 225 kits. i was gonna do 2 3x3 tables but i feel like 4x4s make more sense... id really rather not use a light mover just for the fact it can stop working at any time and id have the light closer.

oops. it would be 225watts over each 4x4 tray... sorry for the confusion.

This is for my vegging setup, but I was wondering if 6x3590s run at 75 watts for a total of 450watts work over two 4x4 trays? Thats 3 lights over each 4x4... I don't need the clones to get very tall, under 20 inches normally. Would this work with a light mover? I run SOG. I can add more lights...

Oh, ok. It's cool. I'm not real anal about stuff. I just wanted to make sure. I just want my setup to work right. Thanks.

i got the 225w kit and I don't see any diffusers with it. Can someone link me to what the diffusers actually are? Like what they look like.

i honestly dont know. im just asking. id like to know if there is any reason to go bigger?

Hmmmm, so the 200w kits heatsink is possibly undersized? What size would be better for the 200w kit?

Too much nutes can screw with flowering too.

Yeah, for sure. I'd guess timer too. check to see if the lights are turning on or off when it says it should, etc.

They don't look like theyre flowering really... I mean its hard to tell but you should have obvious signs of flowering like 2 weeks in.

Exactly. I don't see myself upgrading for a long time when I get these 3590s.

So I'm getting a kit from timber that they say is 56% efficient. Is there anything in the near future from cree that will beat that? I've searched and can't find much.

yeah, its really not the cost im worried about. i basically couldnt cool my lights enough at certain points this year too. like it was sitting in the 90s with ac running constantly and the dehumidifier going.

Nah, I'm guessing the kwh saved will be pretty huge. I probably use 1000kwh a month on A/C and dehumidification during the summer on my 3 600s. I really don't know if it could be calculated until you just do it and see though. Basically the HPS wastes a lot more energy that it converts to heat...

So basically I'm reading that they are cooler than a 600hps being air cooled... I really wonder how much electricity would be saved from the air conditioning being on less.

how is the heat from the lights? i mean, does this setup get as hot as say a 600hps would that is air cooled? i currently have 600s that are air cooled and have air conditioning that runs. Im trying to wrap my head around everything. thanks. im hoping each 400 watt cree setup is a lot cooler...
