Hi guys new grower here, found this great forum through Instagram actually. Amazing for a noob like myself. Just started my second grow after the first was a pretty good success I think. Growing with coco in fabric pots under led lights using canna nutes and having second thoughts on something, the room is only 3x4 and was originally using a 900w (equivalent not actual draw) and got really good results so i bought another Viparspectra (600w this time) for a second small room. Until i sort the second room i just threw the 600 in with the 900 but do you guys think that might be a bit overkill? I live in a relatively cold climate but the room is pretty warm, ventilated with 6" extraction fan, 2 circ fans and a little venting. Only got the 900 on at the moment as there are seedlings in the room but what do you guys think? Should i just take it out or am I being paranoid for no reason ?
Any advice more than welcome and if you need more info ask away :D

Re: Hey fellow growers
Welcome to the forum, Fas420.
IMO, It's a little overkill with the lights when they are still seedlings. I prefer to start mine off under CFL as you can get the lights really close, and really hard to burn them.

Never give advice. Wise men don't need advice. Fools won't take it.

Re: Hey fellow growers
In that case I'll just pull the 600w out, with your opinion plus what ive learned this afternoon i think I'll just stay with the 900wThe Aspie Toker wrote: ↑Fri Feb 16, 2018 3:03 pmWelcome to the forum, Fas420.

Re: Hey fellow growers
I have good light penetration all the way through flower with a viparspectra 450 so I would say it’s very much over kill. Definitely throw it in late veg early flower though depending on your canopy.
