Getting set up

  1. Hello everyone. This will be my first grow and I would like any input if possible before I go wasting money on items I do not need. I will be doing an organic soil grow. My main concern is that it will be in a 9 X 6ft area. Would there be any recommendations on a way to put up curtains or something to keep the light into a 4X4ft area. I planned on getting 4 qb96 elite v2 lights. Was wondering if that would be a good way to go or should i get a different set of lights. 600 will be the max amount i can spend on lighting. All and any input is greatly appreciated. Thank you.

  3. Thank you. Do you think 2 288s would do well for 4 x 4 area?
     
  4. No..you would have to have more than that I think you was right with the QB96s I think 2 will cover a 4x4
     
  5. Soil2coco is the man here about QBs he knows his stuff idk how to tag him but look him up I believe there's a thread about them search around on the forum

  7. Not a problem
     
  8. 4-qb96elite v2 engines and two HLG-480H-54a would give you headroom on the drivers so you can run them dimmed but you’d have the available power if needed.

    I’m running two on the 320H-54a and three 4 footers are loving it. The main takeaways I see is the vegetative growth is vigorous. I’ve defoliated these in flower twice now in almost 4 weeks. Another takeaway is penetration. Look at the bud development further down in the last pictures

  10. Nice. I was just concerned about any light mixing with other areas if I chose to grow clones or anything. Thank you.
