First grow tent setup

I am currently putting together a list for my first grow tent. I have grown before but that was over 15 years ago. I'm interested in hearing advise on what I'm looking at buying before I buy. Here goes my list I'm setting up 2 tents 1 4x2x60 apollo tent for veg and a 4x4x80 gorilla grow tent for flower for the apollo tent I'm wanting to use 2 king plus 800w led lights a 4" fan filter and controller setup with a humidity and temp gauge and 2 6" clip on fans and the gorilla I'm wanting to use 2 king plus 1200w led lights a 400 cfm 6" fan setup with an equal cfm filter and controller humidity and temp with 2-3 6" clip on fans. Any and all advise would be much appreciated. I'm also getting a cheaper 2x2x60 tent for drying with a fan filter combo.

I guess the first thing I would ask is what is your budget

Also your measurements don't make much sense 4 x 4 x 60 and 4 x 4 x 80

Budget $3000 4'x4'x80" 4'x2'x60" 2'x2'x60"

Length x width x height so your tents are 80 and 60 feet tall?

take a closer look at the marks and you will see it's inches not feet on 60 and 80

gotcha

http://www.compareledgrowlights.com/wattage/ King Led's look good. But if the true wattage is 1200 then i would be concerned it might be too strong. Especially with 5 and 7ft total height. 1200 led watts is equivalent to a shit ton of HPS. Honestly I see 4x4 areas with 600 true watt led's growing trees. Just do not want to see you get into light height issues later My friend has a 700 watt led and a 1000 watt hps growing side by side and his plants lean towards the LED.

The gorilla tent is 80" and it's always better to have more light then not enough lights is my understanding

Not when it can burn your plants it is not lol

LED's are really changing the game the old wattage formulas no longer apply with LED. Especially with the spectrum tailored models. I am about to start a commercial indoor farm in a couple months. I have been doing a lot of research.

That I understand I was worried the footprint wasn't enough for the tent with 1 light

Yeah I'm very impressed with the leds and after doing my research decided that the kings plus was best choice being full spectrum and very affordable I do tend to go overboard on projects and that is one reason I'm asking for advise on here

I hear you ive been looking at the heilospectra's

I like the programmable spectrum. This is where LED's shine. Imagine how much of a HPS's light spectrum a plant just does not care about and all the wasted energy..

Yeah the game has changed a lot since I was growing 15 years ago

True I looked into it but I'm trying to keep my cost down as much as possible because I'm getting all my equipment tools and accessories right now

of course i am developing a commercial farm right now. I am actually leaning towards a vertical SOG setup. with 8 ft long double sided liquid cooled led's lol

That's awesome

I'm thinking about going scrog with my tent in a rdwc setup
