That would mean about 5200 Lumens per hood.
You may want to go bigger.
are these hoods for veg only?
No, Those are 27s 5500k. They are what I will be using for veg. For flowering, the largest 2700k bulb I could find that would fit two in a hood was 30w 2k lumens. So I only have space in the hoods for 4k ea hood, 12k lumen total. I was hoping by placing mylar on the entire cab I could use every bit of the 12k. I will also be trying to squeeze in a few more bulbs wherever I can.
Light has been one of my biggest worries. With the space I have, I couldn't really fit in a HID, plus cool it. I looked at 40w bulbs, but I couldn't fit two in a tub, so I would have the same total wattage for a higher price.

If I keep these hoods as close as I can, and vent them very well, should 12k-16k Lumens suffice in a 2X1 scrog environment.
