Hello everyone!
I am new when it comes to LED growing, so i need your help and opinions about this one :)
I ordered mars hydro reflector 48x5w (240w) and grow tent 70x70x 160 CM. In this tent i plan to grow some autoflowers...
So my question is, how many plants can i put under this LED panel?
I thought 2 for start, but i have room to put 4 of them in this box.
Can i finish 4 plants with this light in this tent? and Is this light enough for plants from start to finish?
I would much appreciated any opinion and advice from you guys, and specially from someone who use this light in their grow room.
Stay high :)

I use 300w led per plant and i get decent growth/yeild with it :) i use an older version of the mars hydro without the reflectors so your light should do better than mine :) but this is what i get with one 300 watt light.

I think you will need extra light if your growing 4 plants, i managed 3 plants under 600w led :)

That is some nice plant you got there mate :) So, in your opinion 2 autoflowers should do nicely under 1 mars 48? that was some plan for me, then when i see the results maybe i try with 4 plants in future. Thanks for advice!

Thanks mate :)
You will get better results if your plants had a light each but they should do pretty alright with that :)

Have you looked into COB lights? They are so much more efficent, use less electric, no heat, no noise and extremely powerful! Check them out :) cobshop.net sell them, @BigSm0 is the owner of the site so any questions you have you can ask him directly on here :)

Im just going to convert my viparspectra 300w led to cobs to make them more efficient :)

Yes i saw few growers with this COB and everyone said they are very satisfied. But as i said, im noob with LED-s an i already purchase this setup today so i will try with this first.
But i will definitely consider and study this COB for the future because i only see good reviews and exellent results with COB.
 
a lot of led lights are like car stereos they state the max power,not normal listening volume.the volume of this led is 96watts +/- 5% more suited to a 50x50.
4 plants could be a stretch,2 plants more practical.
good luck and keep er lit.
:pighug:

Im sure you will get some decent buds with led :)

If in future you do want cobs, look into making your own coz its so much cheaper :)

Thanks mate i sure hope so. I read about a little and it turns out that this COB is way much better and the price is not much higher than LED.
I am curios how that lady of yours is gonna look in 2-3 weeks :drool: what is the strain?
 
I have one seed black jack auto (sweet seeds) from this years outdoor and im planning to buy white widow auto (dinafem) i just love this plant :) but im not sure yet i like to try out this auto strains and there is plenty of them to try.
