Is this a better light?

Can u suggest what light would be good for my size tent

26

So what can I accomplish with the lights and tent size I have?

27

Should I go with a five gallon pot?

I think you’ll be alright with the 2 lights you have. You’ll be pushing close to 40w/sqft so not too bad. And 5 gallon is plenty big enough for your space.

The rule of thumb for lighting is as follows.

Blurple panels (the ones like you’ve posted above, with the pinkish/purple hued light) is 50 watts of actual draw at the wall for every square foot of flowering canopy.

Hps and cmh are about the same

Qb’s, light strips and high efficacy cobs need 30ish actual watts of draw at the wall for each square foot of flowering canopy.

Just throwing this out there. My Cree fixture is flowering at approximately 25W a square foot. My wallet thanks me. @Drinkslinger but it didn’t thank me when I bought it. Lol.

That’s why I said “ish”
My plc builds are pretty on point too. I’ve had to turn them down. I had one plant start turning white :scream:
