Actually, one of the reasons why I believed in getting 3lbs per 1000w light is because I saw a thread you were in and you stated that ppl pull 3 lbs off one light with DE fixtures all the time. So is it because I'm putting the light over a 4x8 tray? Do I need a smaller tray (sq foot area) to get the 3lbs per 1000w?
And Im glad you told me about the t5 to 1000w causing a stretch. I might switch the t5 to a 250 led. And I will take your advice and i wont veg, i will only use the led to root clones. That's vital information. Much appreciated...my pops told me to just make a room as well. That will definitely save me some money. Those tents are EXPENSIVE.
Also, yes I am putting a lot into this. I wish I can start small, but due to unmentioned circumstances, anything smaller will not make up for what I'm investing. If I can I will strongly consider.
