How you guys doing , I am planning on starting an indoor grow very soon and was trying to decide on 1000 or 600. Many people have said 600 is just as good as 1000 just more energy efficient is this true ?

Please feel free to post your opinions ! thank you all very much!

1000w wins on size and yield but 600 is more effiecient per watt and puts out less heat if thats an issue

I was going to build a room in my garage large enough to acomidate 2 4x4 flood tables. I intend to insulate it and put a small air conditioner in there so heat should not be much of an issue

whats your grow area?... If you are doing a 5 x 5 or less, then go with the 600...If its 6 x 6 or larger get the 1000 or (2) 600 if you can afford it...

600s allow for more sources of light and allow you to place bulbs closer to your canopy. Also true that they are more efficient in lumens per watt. I vote 600.
