Picked up a used tent and lights on trade.

The HLG 260 is an excellent light, but it won't out out as much light as a 600 watt HID. With top bin LED (which is what HLG uses) I'd recomment about 350 to 400 watts to truly replace a 600 watt HID setup. You may not even need that much though depending on how big the tent is. A good range to be in is 30 to 45 watts per square foot of growing space. How big is the tent?

Never mind, just found the comparable light to a 600 watt hps.

Anyways,

The other option is to get a 260 but don't fill the tent until you could get more light. If you just grew in a 2.5 x 2.5 or a 3 x 3 area in middle of your 4 x 4 tent the 260 would do very well
