1 1000watt HID would cover it but two 600 watts would do nice in there if you got the cash for both lights. Depends no what lights you use as to what fans to get. I run a 750CFM fan and love it.So I'm about to purchase my 5x5 gorilla grow tent I would like to get your feedback on amount of lights and ventilation personal experience with brands durability before I start to buy any tips and advice is greatly appreciated I plan on starting with 9 auto flowering
2 x 600w hid would be best, but i couldnt get that to fit well in a 5x5 tent. So i went with a 1000w hid. I did well with it.
You will need to cool it with a 6" inline fan. Run ducting from outside the tent through a hood then out. Youll also need to get fresh air in there. Maybe a 4" axial fan to pump it in + a 4" inline fan on a filter to exhaust the tent (need a speed controller to dial that exhaust fan down a bit to avoid too much neg pressure.
With that set up i did 4 plants vegged for 4-5 weeks before flipping to flower and i was consistently pulling 23-26 ounces with an indica dominant strain.
And i was a noob then...

I was thinking 2 600s also but would they fit well in tent what about heat also would I be able to just plug into wall outlet?
2 600w can go on one breaker but that would be about it ...........u are going to need atleast 2 15 amp breakers 3 if u are using a powerful AC
Note that he said one BREAKER. There's several outlets in one breaker so make sure nothing else is operating on it or the breaker will trip and lights out. Or worse...fire...if the electrical is wonky...
Running it all through a surge protector will just put all the load on that breaker and it will still trip it when overloaded.I know an electrician should I just tell him to add a 60amp breaker to the box and a new outlet to the room and just plug everything to a surge protector and run in it through that outlet
