New Grower Which Black Star full spectrum light for 2-4 plants in 1m x 1x 2m tent?

Which Blackstar LED should I upgrade to for a minimum of 2 plants and maximum of 4 plants in a 1m x 1m x 2m tent?

What are max temps in a tent that size with only an oscillating fan blowing and a CF filter inside the tent blowing out?

Sorry, out of my depths with LED's. I'll finish my first grow with HPS then make a switch to LED.

You want about 600w of light in that space to really kill it. 400 watts will work well, but won't have the same yield. If the question is which Blackstar LED, I'd go with the biggest one you can afford, probably the 500 Chrome series. The 720 won't hurt anything and would allow more plants. This is operating under the assumption of 4 plants. For 2, you're 100% good to go with a 270w. I have a 270w chrome and 240w regular flower model in my 2x2 space and it's all the light I need for a great crop of really dense, sugary bud.

Thanks bud for the reply and the PM. What about temps for the 500 vs the 270? These are both the full spectrum veg and flower lights?

Right now I have this POS growlush fan that doesn't cool worth a damn. I've already upgraded to a Can Fan, yet to receive it. I'm running my window unit portable AC full time just to keep temps at 77. Will I need dedicated cooling for LED's?

Not sure what to do with the setup I just bought...a Growlush kit off ebay for 500 AUD for the tent, crap fan, ducting, 160mm CF, Xtracool tube.

I think 1 light will put out less heat than 2, so if you get a big light, don't worry about it...I'd be more worried about getting the wrong light and wanting more down the road and needing to pay all that extra overhead to add some watts when you realize ~200-ish watts isn't what you need. Heat is manageable, and if it's not just grow equatorial sativas, lol! All things considered, LED is the coolest option for the wattage you want.

Should I go with the Blackstar P Series BlackStar Apollo LED 360W or the Grow Northern MS0006? This would be for a minimum of 2 plants going at once, maybe 3.

Does anyone have examples of temps they run with LED vs HPS in a 1m x 1m x 2m tent, all closed up with oscillating fans only....without the need for AC?

Question is, will I need AC with an LED of 200-300w's and what temps can I expect with a LED that size and running 20/4 or 24/7?

GN ALL THE WAY! dont have examples of temps dont run hps. sorry. and i run close to 300ws in led and my temps max out at 84F (its stays around 80-82F)its gotten up to 88 but thats only beacuse it was -2 outside and the heat was blasting in the house."Wind Chilllll.." fixed by letting the tent air out and bumping my heat down a little bit! i run 20/4 my tent is 3x3x6 looks like the same size as your space!
