just got me a secret jardin darkroom 120 its 4x4. now next is the lighting and venting any suggestions. will a 400 watt be sufficent? and as far as yield should i do 4 plants in there or would it be better to do one in a scrog? thanks for any help

for a 4x4 area a 600 watts HPS is needed to fully cover the area, but if you will only have 4 plants, then that 4 watter you have will be sufficient.

400w can work in a 4x4 area all depends how much space your plants will cover, a 400w is generaly good for a 2x2 so if you run 4 plant, one per sq ft it's doable, but i would go with a 600w or even 1000w if you can keep the temp good.

I have 600 and can keep it cool just fine in a 4x4 tent (GL120). I think I could put a 1K in mine and make it work but its in a cool basement.
