Hey so I have a 1000 watt full spectrum LED light. I have 6 plants as of now not knowing if any are males or not still waiting to find that out. But is that plenty of light for 6 plants? Or would you recommend getting another light?

1000 watts of LED will flower a space of 5'x5', I use one in a 4x4. Shoot for 40 watts per square foot minimum, I get 60.

Inside that 16 or 25 square foot space you can grow your plants like Christmas trees or get more out of them by training.

As long as it is 1000 actual watts. Alot of the "full spectrum" leds only draw a fraction of their advertised power.

You can get a killawatt, the plug into the wall and your light plugs into it. Measures the draw from the wall.

Take a look at the back of the light, see what it says.

You can get $10 smart plugs on amazon that have a kill-a-watt like device built in. Can also use the app as a timer and to monitor for power outages.
