can I put a 1000wt Daystar ac hps in a 7' 10 1/2'' x 3' 11'' x 6' 7'' space? or is the area to big for the light any suggestions would help. Thanks
Runbyhemp said:I've calculated it and worked out you have about 4,700 lumens per square foot. Recommended is 5,000, so you're not far off.
However, your grow space is rectangular, not square, so some plants would be quite some distance from the light. I would recommend 2 x 600W in that space for an even distribution of light and it wall also bring the lumen count up to the desired level per square foot.
Hope this helps.
