I'm moving up to a slightly larger tent for my next grow, 3X3 feet. I've got a PG260 LED panel which I suppose is enough, but I'm thinking of adding some extra light. I've come up with two possibilities: add a 150W HPS during flowering, or stick a T5 tube vertically in each corner. Or, I suppose, two foot tubes horizontally on the sides. Which of these makes the most sense? Or do you have an idea that tops both?
 
More light is always better and I'd agree about the HPS. I use a Sunsystem 150 alone in a cab half your size and that's enough to yield solid, rock hard nugs and good yields without supplemental lighting of my own. Would do well for you as well. Not sure if you're in US or not but check out that light, you can find it on amazon for 56 bucks right now. They may have em in your country too if you're not in US, though I know they're American made.

Good luck and any supplemental lighting is great no matter what kind it is. Will truly make a difference.

Yeah, I'm in Oregon; that's the one I was looking at.

Sort of random but I've literally read from a couple different people that they had their Sun Sys 150 running in their basement when it flooded and the thing kept running underwater and afterwards! Pretty impressive. All I can say is it has given me great results.

Good luck!
