10K lumen, but 2 bulbs 11 3/4" wide 24" long


4 bulbs might have better coverage, but it has less lumens, so I'm kind of confused>
Can someone give me a tipeeeeeeeeeeee? plz







but by having a veg going while im flowering I'll be able to go perpetually instead of having a gap between after harvesting and then waiting for the plants to veg , if I have them veg while I flour

The 4 bulb unit is more efficient (lumens/watt). The 2 bulb unit is a PL type which is shaped like a U. There is some loss of light because the inside of the U tube reflects back onto itself and is less efficient. Actual amount of light delivered is about the same. I would go with the 4 bulb unit since you have a wider bulb selection available for fine tuning your spectra.

Great for Veg, as long as the plants are covered by the reflector footprint.
