optimal spectrum vs maximum lumens sqf?
I have a few questions? I have 2 options and would like some advice regarding 2k of light's. Not sure which is going to give better yeild, I was thinking Growzilla dual bulb air coolable hood, with 1k hps, 1k mh = 266,000 lumens /48 sqf = 5541 , or 2k hps 290,000 = 6041 lumens per foot. The only problem is electric bill I figured something like 56.73 kw per day or 1701 k per month.
Prop 215 strictly by the law. My energy bill would double, wouldn't that raise a flag. I had also thought 1k of lights
possibly 600 hps and 400 mh (in growzilla as well )so total lumens would be 127,000 /48sq= 2645 lumens per foot, to low for ideal growth, either setup would be on a light mover. This option would lower my kw per day by 12 so 44.73kw per day. What are your thoughts? Thanks in advancenuggiespl Reviewed by nuggiespl on . optimal spectrum vs maximum lumens sqf?
