I am currently at 45 days flowering 2 smaller plants only about 15 inches tall. I have them in my 4x4 tent with a mars hydro tsw2000 which is obviously not enough light to fill the whole tent. Next grow I want to do 4 to 6 plants and I will be doing all mephisto autos. I have my phlizon 1000 blurple crap light. I am wondering if I should add this light to the tent as well or just cram them under the mars hydro. The issue I am seeing is if I scoot my tsw1000 to one end of the tent and put the blurple on either end, Then I am going to have half of a few quality genetic plants only under blurple. I'm guessing my best bet would be to rig it up after this run, and borrow a light meter and do some tests to see what the numbers are on the blurple end of the tent.
 
Throw the blurple in the trash and order u a second tsw2000
My son was just born and I am not back to work until January, funds are tight for a bit and the wife will kill me if I buy another light lol. Another tsw is in the distant future
 
Just do 3 or 4 plants under the TSW 2000PXL_20211213_032059712.jpg
This is 4 plants----well, 3 and a half, I have one in a 1gal pot, the other three are in 3gal---on a 4x4, under a TSW2000. I just confine them to the proper 3x3 footprint of the light. Wait until you get a bigger light, to fill the tent and do more plants.

If anything, get a TSL 2000 and run it alongside your TSW. But, you'll still have a 1ft space along one wall that'll be a somewhat dead zone.

If you can't get a different light then you can't get a different light. If you have a crappy one that's better than no light at all so if use it. If you're worried about mixed results you could just rotate the plants throughout the tent every few days or weekly. I personally think more plants equal more bud I can smoke so I try to pull off as many as I can. I grow micro so a couple 2-3 well trained plants or half dozen 12/12 from seed plants is about all I can manage in my current space, even then I am constantly working on plant rotation and humidity struggles. That said, I grow my own and it never disappoints so I keep at it even with my limited space and resources.

Maybe for now I will just tape out a 3x3 I am using 3 to 5 gal pots so I should be able to get 4 in there no problem.

I have once decent light, I just didn't know if it was worth adding the other. I guess I will just keep it small for now until I can add the proper equipment to get the job done right.
