Light Question

It may be possible, but I think it's almost impossible with a 430W to burn from the intensity, I can't speak to the bigger lamps.

I have a huge fan venting my light so I get zero heat off it and through bad planning, lol, my plants are within mere inches of the light, but they seem to be thriving. I think heat gets most plants before the light intensity.

I wish overgrow was still around there was this thread where this guy was wondering why his plants were dying he had a serious set up. He had something like 10 air cooled 1000w HPS lights in his small room cause he thought he could get more he posted a lot of pic of plants the looked stressed as hell. It was just to much light. So it is difficult but quite possible to have too much light.

For a short time, I had almost an identical combination--(2) 105w, (4) 27w, and (1) 42w. Plants seemed to respond well although I found that many CFL's all grouped together got quite hot. I had to use a variety of fans configured just right to evacuate most of the heat away from the area.

In this pic I'm not using two of the 27 watters...
