Done a couple single plant grows but looking to scale up to about 6 in a tent. For the single plant grows literally just used one 600W LED light. Wondering firstly how much more light would be needed for 6 plants. Already got a 600W LED and an 800W COB LED. Is that enough? S
Secondly how much more equipment would be needed in the tent? Looking around fans and an extractor seem necessary but have also seen people using humidifiers, dehumidifiers carbon filters etc. Anything necessary other than lights fans and maybe an extractor??
Thanks for any help
 
How big is the tent? Budget? What are your harvest goals

Looking at tents around 200x200x200 (cm)
Trying to spend around £500 and really can't go over £1000
So harvest goals are just however much I can get from a pretty small budget

Thanks a lot dude. I'll check out the ebay set ups.
What kinda light situation you got going on?
 
Those two lights will be fine over 3 plants each. If you want to grow 6 plants, a 4x4 tent would work. Though it might be a little tight when all are near fully grown. I just dumped my 4x4 in which I only grew 4 plants. Now I am back to a 2x4 for the second time. With a 4x4 you will want at least a 6" fan/carbon filter.
 
6x6 will be plenty of room for 6 plants, you could do 4 -6 lights for optimum penetration and coverage. A good heavy 8" fan and filter would be plenty. A 4" fan for air.

I use cob LEDs but have also run led panels, dont be cheap on any equipment and it should last you for a good while.

That's really helpful. Thank you!
