it looks good. and caligreens probably has less square footage than u do. more wattage = more square footage of light coverage u have and more lumens. u have a pretty decent sized area right? if u were growing in a 2x4 closet then yes that would look a bit small. plus it depends on the strain and its genetics. besides caligreenzzz might be growing in a smaller area compared to where u r growing.

well, its a very nice setup and the plants arent bad for a first grow.quite good actually.

healthy looking too. thats a fine achievement in of itself, in a first grow.

sure, could be bigger, but he´ll get it dialed in later and maybe its a more potent than yieldy strain.

nice grow..if you didnt want to go to teh 2 light set-up..i put in a track (grow light mover) in my 8' x 12' room..i was able to get light to more plants (from a 12 plant grow to 16+) while maintaining teh same yields per plant..but if you can afford teh extra light i'm sure thats teh way to go 2x 1000w..and yeh..who cares teh strain as long as it does waht its sposed to..call it wahtever you want ;P
