Light coverage question - add/replace/leave alone?

Oh and what do you mean the hang of using them and thank you guys

Right I can run with 16 hps 600w lights so I suppose the question is should I use the full 16x16. These are not auto and yes Iā€™ll be allowing them to grow straight up

Is there another option other than strait up

LST, manifold, etc

I do scrogs to maximize light, eatā€™s up floor space though! Any type of manipulation would work!

What do you guys mean with this wich craft can I have some pics or links

S.C.R.O.G. =SCReen Of Green, LST=Low Stress Training , HST= High Stress Training, Manifolding are all training techniques that can be used for various desired effects! You can search all categories and come up with all sorts of stuff or you can google any of them! Lets see your BUD Porn (you know you got some) I started this with a scrog.

@Holmes @dbrn32 LIGHT UPDATE so I have the 2x4, 6ā€™ tent set up, 3 cloned photos in 3gal fabric w/soil @ week 3 of veg,
footprint is an HLG 100 - Mars TS600 - HLG 100 (3 panels) all about 18" above canopy, plants happy and bushy, about 12in tall. good to go? (~37 w/sqft but debating swapping out the TS600 for another HLG100 (but 3000k this time, others are 4000k) to flower in a few weeksā€¦otherwise can add something? Looked like the HLG 260xl is recommended to flower a 2x4 so thinking my set up is close but like being able to position individual panels vs. one long one. ā€¦budget is almost whatever it takes to do it right since I kind of jumped into this on a whim and a gift from my wife (the mars 600w tent starter kit which I am finding out might have been underpowered to begin with for my goal). End game is a decent setup to be able to roll with 3-4 either photos or autos at a time

Do you guys think I will be able to successfully scrog 28 super Lemmon haze in a 16x16

@jimmyjimjam You decide how big they get before you flip, I usually see them grow a third of what they are at flip! Some say they double in size? Grandaddy013 grows 6 in one tote in hydro to fill out a 5x5 screen, I use 1 to fill out a 30"x30", so you have options!
Looks like you might be close to flip :grin: ! They shoot up real quick at the point you are at now!
