i was thinking a similar thing i have started a thread in closet growing keep an eye on both threads i was thinking 50w per tube, my dims are 2'x4'x6+2' with 4 on each 2' side and 6 on each 4' side thats a total of 1400w for me (400w hps) which is around 175w per square foot i personally think thats a hell of alot of over kill though
nickers Reviewed by nickers on . Wattage For Side Lighting Okay i've just ordered my 600 watt hid system from htgsupply, (well last week) and this week i'll be ordering two 6" vortex fans. I have more things to buy but, as for side lighting which would enhance my grow, i am growing 4 plants maximum in a 70 cubic feet space. Rating: 5
