I dont understand either. I figure my rectangular air cooled hood would work nice to give me a square garden. Parabolic would give me a round garden, if I'm not mistaken. And my geometry is too rusty to figure those numbers. lol

Alright I've been researching, brain storming, tokin', and drinkin', trying to figure out how to put my lighting system to it's optimum use. I'm working with a 1,000w HPS system. Thats with a MH conversion bulb, and eye hortilux HPS bulb I've figured the numbers with 3 possible garden sizes 4x4, 4x5, 5x5. I'll start with the brightest. 4'x4' area=16 square feet or 62watts/ square foot HPS=9,062 Lumens/ square foot MH =6,562 Lumens/ square foot 4'x5' area=20 square feet or 50watts/ Rating: 5
