I have a 39"x39"x72" tent. I run a viparspectra 600w as of now. I want to upgrade to a better light any suggestions and info. will be appreciated.
I am interested in cobs like the timber or rapid led sets. I have also been looking at Optic leds as well. Thanks again for any help.

will you diy? building a strip panel is probably one of the best options at the mo. theyre pretty simple and very cost effective

Maybe. I was trying to get something with a pre built spectrum since I am still pretty new to the led game lol.

dont worry about spectrum, worry about spread. strips for the win, there are plenty of really helpful builders here that will help you.

you will spend a lot less money and end up with a great light. check out ledgardeners site too

That is my current grow right now. I have one Lemon Haze she is doing good to fill out my 3x3. It would be easier but I ended up getting root aphids so yeah been dealing with that but anyways. She has been in flower for 7 days. The Vipar does good especialy at veg. and not bad at flower. But I am looking to get a little more push for my flowering. I will probalbly get a second tent for veg. and use the Vipar for that.

Is there some place that says what to buy and how to put it togeather
google LEDgardener strip build. It has all the parts numbers and where to buy.

Its very simple these days.

Alternatively if you want a deeper understanding you can check out growmau5 's early 7 part diy led series on youtube.
Though you don't have to know all that stuff with how simplified using strips makes it.
