HID Lighting Coverage Area Data

On average you need 50 Watts of HID lighting per square foot of the area you intend to illuminate. This rule does not take into consideration the shape of your grow area. Below I have added a more accurate method.

250 Watt HID Light illuminates a 2'x2' Grow Space
400 Watt HID Light illuminates a 3'x3' Grow Space
600 Watt HID Light illuminates a 3.5'x3.5' Grow Space
1000 Watt HID Light illuminates a 4'x4' Grow Space

In some situations you can have a slightly larger area however HID light diminishes at an advanced rate the further it is from the plants and you stand a chance of the edges of your garden being in the dark if you try to use too large of an area with a less powerful HID light.
