Noobs grow flow

I prefer rapidled over timber for no logical reason.

CXB3590 4' x 4' LED Grow Kit

Or you could go with HLG and grab two of these.

320W XL QB® V2 Rspec® LED Kit

Ultra High Efficiency LED Boards for DIY. QB288 has 288pcs Samsung LM301H LED. 320 Watt Lamp Kit suited for main light and supplement lighting. 3 ft. long heatsink for a wider spread.

They'd crush your 4x8 area. What's your height?

How does two of these stack up to one of those. Only reason I ask is this is what my local grow store has. And this light knowledge is to much for me to grasp

Is that 450 actual watts, or 450 equivalent?

I would def go with qbs with that height

Likewise. I'm not a fan of those kind of lights. I learned fast why blurples and fancy cased lights are not seen in the better grows. I have ViparSpectra r300s, while decent, my QBs are shitting all over them bad. Save your money and go with the HLG QB kit. If you tech savvy you could save a couple hundred and build it yourself. I feel though after all the shipping is said and done you'll be paying about the same for an HLG kit. I'm looking into those lights now for you

You wouldn't think that if you used t5s or a 5k qb lol. I thought the same never going back, thankfully only purchased mine due to money and time restrictions.
Please do not waste your money on those agroled they are no good my friend. Overpriced bullshit. The reviews weren't any better. Many had lighting issues a year later.

I was where you are at not even a year ago. No worries at all, glad I could help. I'ma big fan of the Rspec series QBs but the v2 are very nice and cheaper. You can always supplement reds, it and uv.

I might be able to go up 7 feet if that makes a difference.

I mean, u can make anything work if u train your plants correctly. Shit, I have 6.5 ft. ceilings and use a DE gavita in the winter time cranked to 825 watts, but having both, I would still recommend the qb's...
