no problem man, a 600? Also if you hang three and there is a little overlap on their coverages...Yeah shouldn't be that difficult really and 20 under like a still small <4 ft2 teh girls would stay small enough to get max penetration from a 600w. 600s are so sweet when you don't have a deep canopy. I need to switch out my 2x1k for 3x600, but i just keep putting it off.

hey thanks for the quick reply . i was hoping someone would confirm this i will be hanging all three so there will be overlapping right now i,m using ice cream and chocolope but still looking for a strain that will do an ounce plus any suggestions . my room will be 12 by 12 but haven,t yet decided on the layout yet . this will be my side project for myself. i have another one with a partner and we use six 600 watt lights we started out using three 1000 watt four years ago and switch to the 600 watt two years ago but were always butting heads on how and whats the best way to do things . so this will be my side project and if i can hit my numbers i may just drop then other and go solo. so any tips will be greatly appreciated oh yeah i,m going to be using the adjustable wing reflectors for no other reason than i haven,t tried them and like the fact that there light weight. good growing to you and stay safe. thanks hwt.

hey good luck to u mate. i think the key would be short and stocky with heavy fruit. i saw some interesting sog methods on the other froum that would work but i,m more of a one gallon bag man right now with cooco mix. just have a strong desire to hit the one pound to one 600 watt light.take care and thanks.

hey guys...thought I'd share my $.02 on this subject. I think you should have no problem reach a lb with 1 600 watt'r

I SOG my closet with a 400 watt'r with 12 plants...running GHS WW right now...once my clones are rooted, I then throw em' right into 12/12 under my 400 watt'r and harvest usually a zip a piece...roughly 12 zips per run...finished height of my WW's are about a foot and a half tall when done. If you get the technique dialed in, this is the most productive way to yield high quality herb. The lamp is just concentrated on the central cola of each plant giving you the creme de la creme...none of the fluffy stuff under the canopy... :) hope this helps!

just what i want to hear sounds like im thinking in the right direction on this .it seems 3 600 watts with 20 one gal. bags under each light should do this .thanks its my own little holy grail. just dont tell brian. lol

1 pound is about 453 grams i belive. that way under the 1 gram per watt so yes should not be a problem at all if done correctly :)
