HLG 65 v2 is light good for beginner? 2x2 tent

Nice looks beautiful in there I got home late so I don’t wanna disturb the girls sleeping. Yours girls gonna explode love the set up already

@SilvaBack203 thanks you guys for recommending this light. Was really debating but I’m glad I did, can’t wait to see how my girls turn out

U can dim it down in case u didn’t know yet

How do you do it? It doesn’t have a on off switch either

Did you get a timer? Thats your on and off switch. In the back of the driver there’s a black cap remove it and with a Philips screw driver u can dim it

So after seen your girl and light I couldn’t wait n woke my girls up.

Here’s the driver

The girls under the new light

@Indo_817 - just a suggestion, but you should see if a mod can move this over to the Journals section and maybe re-name it and keep it as your spot.
Nice spot you got going there man.
The girls look happy :smiley:

There’s literally so many people here that got your back.

Keep on gettin’ it bro!

HGE!!!

Awesome! I upgraded the light in my flower tent yesterday. Now running 3x QB 288 boards, at a total of 395W:


And with separate drivers, I can run at 135W, 260W or 395W:

Thank you and see the community already have your back. The 1 recommend above will work great. If you have time and a homdepot near you. You can pick one up for $10. Now you just need 2 find a time that will work for you. Veg stage 18 hours on and 6 off are the normal.

I have the driver sitting on top of my tent it worked perfect

@Newt thank you got one ordered @SilvaBack203 read your comment after I had already ordered it but might swing by anyways I have one a block away here from my job haha
