Help me decide on a LED!

Blue_Focus said:

I'm currently running a Spider Farmer SF1000 EVO in my 2 x 2 tent. It's plenty of light for it.

But I'm planning on getting the Ionframe Evo4 for a 32" x 32" tent.

I don't think the Spider Farmer SF2000 EVO will fit in a 2 x 2. It's basically 2 SF1000's side by side.

This how my Autoflower turned out.

I also put in Ionbeam 16 lights as side lighting for better fill.

Very Nice! Love how compact it stayed, I never tried auto flowers, they were just coming around when I got out of growing but I see them at every seed bank now so they must have got the kinks out! What kind of light cycle did you run for that grow?

I ran it at 20/4 for the entire grow.

Extreme overkill in a 2x2.
Plus that light is like 24.2 inches. Doubt it'll fit in a 24x24 tent.
Check out the Viparspectra XS1500PRO.
I have one in a 2x2 and it's a real badass light, great build quality, and I've never turned it above 50%

OK some of you may remember me from way back, those of you that do know I'm not new to growing, I've been retired for 10yrs now and I'm ready to get my feet wet again since laws have eased up! So, I want to try these new LED's I'm way behind on these and could use some help, Im done with the days of extra A/C units HPS, CMH, MH. and just want something small and simple for personal use. The tent I will be using is a AC infinity. 24"x24"x72" running DWC with SCOG screen Im looking for maximum yield since I will only be growing 1 plant at a time. Below are the current lights I'm looking at please help me decide or if you have any other suggestions let me know..

IONFRAME EVO4, Samsung LM301H EVO Commercial LED Grow Light, 300W, 3x3 ft. - AC Infinity

Thanks for your help! I think I'm going to pull the trigger on the IONFRAME EVO4 and use the IONBOARD S22 that comes with the kit for a veg. Dimension wise there is no question it will fit and I’m guessing it will work with the controller. Would you say the side lighting was worth it? I’m thinking with the EVO4 I should not need it since it’s kinda over kill for a 2x2, but like overkill I was running a 400w hps in the same size space before

The se3000 would be my choice, my se3000 has a meanwell driver, lm301 chips and it's a solid performer to boot.

A couple grown with se3000.

The ViparSpectra XS1500 Pro looks incredible for even coverage. Check out Migro review on YouTube.
