Hey guys! So I have a 2’x2’x4’ wood box interior painted white that I’m growing in. Still trying to figure out ventilation but waiting until after I get lights figured out, I have some ideas already.
I currently have one 32w Feit electric 3spectrum grow light I got from Home Depot for like 70 bucks. https://www.feit.com/products/grow-lights/adjustable-3-color-spectrum-dual-2ft-led-grow-light/
I know I need more light, so my question is should I get another one of those (making the total wattage 64) or should I get the Mars Hydro ts1000(https://www.amazon.com/MARS-HYDRO-Thermometer-Hygrometer-Marshydro/dp/B07PLY1WKK
)and return the light I have? Prices would be the same as getting another Feit light after returning so I’m REALLY leaning towards the MS ts1000
Advice is welcome thanks y’all

If those are your only 2 options I think you will be better off with the mars ts1000

I’m trying not to spend over $150 on a light if I can. I don’t know anything about wiring or electrics, or at least no where near enough to wire one myself

1) Quantum board design with the newest SMD tech. More durable and longer lifespan.
2) The light is white color and full spectrum. More similar to sunlight.
3) 30% higher light efficiency than the purple LED. Save 30% power bill.
4) PPE is 2.15 to 2.57umol/J. The plant can grow bigger and faster.
5) Max yield up to 2.5 g/W dried buds. Cost-effective: Very affordable for indoor growers.

the wattage can be adjusted by the driver.

Hello, Not trying to HiJack this thread.

Newbie here. Have yet to make the first harvest.
I have 2 tents going: 2x4x5(veg) and 3x4x6(flower\mother - combo).
Hydro.
You would think that I have tried to kill my first plants at every step of the way.
I have started to figure it out, mostly.
stupid

Now to the question:
I have started a few clones from trimmings.
They are now becoming...well...real plants.
stupid

I need reasonable recommendations < $100 if possible...

(edited for stupidity)

Ive noticed. Like all markets. Name brand is expensive. Granted you get what you pay for in most cases. I think every light would work,on the right application. 70 bucks for a 240w light. I couldn't pass it up. Working great for me. But I'm also not growing a room full. All depends what ya need

Need to finish setting up everything else before I upgrade res and air system.

Thanks for the recommendations again.
