Hello donkey942

Perfectly fine to have more

If you need to expand because of growth of the plants then you have your back covered

Rock hard buds!

1000w hps in a room where the floor measures 4.5 ft x 2.5 ft, and its about 15,000 lumens a square ft if its measured by the floor space. the bulb produces 150,000 lumens.

with that many lumens, dare i say it, but i found the buds a little "too tough" just my opinion, they were rock hard, and very dense, but i think for some reason it affected quality????? not sure, they were also hermies in the end, so yeah, prob just a crap strain.
