800w or 2x 400w

[tromeros]

Hello evryone i got a question i was wonder if you know witch way is better to grow..

. one grow box 1x1x2 with an extreame cool tube extreame ventilation (so the heat is not problem) and 800w lighting with growzilla reflector (that takes 2 x 400w hps lamps)..?




or



. two grow boxes each 1x400w hps lamp?

i want to have bigger and better yield thats why i want to do the First opinion with the 800w but i dont know if this way is better..

I say 2 grow boxes better chances to grow different strains, scrog or increase plant numbers if the last option is not a problem, also heat management but you said you got that cover

Are those the only options?

I would use a 600w per square meter. I would use one 800 over one 400 in that space. Never heard of an 800w HPS though. Are they new?

no i mean 2x400w = 800w per m2 with growdzilla reflector that takes 2 hps next to each other

no point putting 2x400's in a 1m sq (3x3 sq ft) box. either get a bigger "box" or use 2 x boxes with a 400w in each

You want your lights overlapping. Especially with such low wattage bulbs.
