Ha ha lol sorry got a bit of a buzz was wanting to know if I got it 2 high can't really find an answer on LED height
 
Not as high you:joint::joint::joint::eyesmoke:

12"-20" is typical in led

Start them at 18", they'll grow into it and then raise your light so that your canopy fits in that 10" depth
 
thanks really want these to work put alot of cash in this would really like to have good organic smoke

I hope you didn't put "a lot of cash" into those two junk lights.... Those things are pretty much worthless for anything other than seedlings.

Good quality white lights are the way to go, not that blurple shit. Look into COB's (Citizen, Vero, Luminus), Quantum Boards (HLG) or Strip LEDs from Samsung or Bridgelux.
 
Just saying

Watt = is symbolized as a capital W
wt = is the typical abbreviation for weight

No one going to mention he is trying to grow three plants with a total (approx) 50 W of blurple? Sorry icon, thats never going to work well.

How big is the space? Can you give us a link to the 300 W panel you are purchasing?

Height and coverage are linked, the higher you place the light the larger the area of coverage, however you are dividing the same amount of photons (light) over the larger area, meaning that each square foot will receive less light overall.

Inversely drop the light down to reduce coverage and increase photon count.
 
To be honest i had a 300w led from viparspectra which i sent back to get the 600w version which i sent back again to purchase a cob light vero 29 from bud tech. Trust me mate, trichomes start to appear at the 3rd or 4th day! You will be surprise how good it will be to swap and invest that "a lot of cash" you were talking about!

I've got a T5 as well as several T8 set ups could I mix it all together

No, like I said, they are ok for seedlings, but you need some serious wattage for veg. 30-35 Watts (actual wattage not "rated" watts) per square foot.
