Assuming its a good quality LED (no blurple), 150w is ample for 4 square feet

Seems like the right amount. I’d put that much in a 2x2. What kind of light? I know you have an LED.. but which one, just wondering

Should be great. Most LEDs are hitting 2.3+ pretty easily even in cheap options.

2.3umols/w * 150w=345umols PPF... ÷ .37m2= ~932umols PPFD
