i run 3 1000 watters in a 9x6 space.. no heat, humidity or coverage problems here....my girls are cranking

two lamps in a 6'X6' with a light mover??????? less your moving in a circle that wont be much movement will it? hmmmmm i'm kinda Medicated right now though so forgive the somewhat silly comments I make.
Peace

2 1000 watts in a 6'X6'!!!!! Geez youd need sunblock and sunglasses in there not too mention you better have a hell of a ventilation setup. I bet that fan runs a muffler.

i was thinking that as well... your get about 4 feet of movment...thats it the lights didnt hit eachother as they pass....but i didnt wanna hurt anyones feelings..

How Tall is that space?

its called "my setup". i got a 6 inch vortex...temps stay right around 85 during the "day".. and right around 65 at night. and yeah its pretty freakig bright....but i figure its like you or i eating with a snowshovel....haha

its 8 feet tall...

ok thats some decent height then. Whew yeah i bet its brighter than crap in there. protect your eyes. LOL

wow now kidding, with 1k lamps you defiantly dont need a mover in there.

1-1000w. Eye Hortilux Super EN HPS - Vented Hood/800cfm Exhaust - On A 4' Light Mover. Or 2-600w.hps Eye Hortilux Super EN HPS - Vented Hood's/800cfm Exhaust. Either Set-Up Will Do A Great Job.

You Would Be Amazed On What A Light Mover Can Do Over A Stationary Light!!!!
You Can Just About Double Your Crop, & Won't Have To Be Moving Plant's All The Time, Because The One's In The Middle Are Hogging All The Light.

Just Think About It!!!EH!!!

In that space, With an even canopy, I dont see any reason to have to move a single one of the plants for them to get even lighting under 2k of HPS lighting.
I myself would likely try to make one of the lamps a MH to mix the spectrum up

Ok, In This Post You Say 1k, & No You Are Not Going To Have A Even Canopy With Out A Light Mover Or Moving Plant's, Been There Done That On Both Count's.

And In This Post Your Talking About 2k, Which Is A Big Difference, But Still You May Have To Move Plant's Around For A Even Canopy.

JUST GOT A 1000 HPS GROWBRIGHT FROM HTGSUPPLY AND A QUADRAY REFLECTOR PLEASE TAKE A LOOK High Tech Garden Supply
AND LET ME KNOW WHAT YOU THINK
I WILL USE THIS WITH ONE 400 HPS High Tech Garden Supply
IN MY 6X6 ROOM AT THE BEGINNING OF THE POST UNFOURT THAT I WILL NOT BE GETTING THE LIGHT MOVER

DO YOU THINK THAT 1-1000 HPS AND 1-400 HPS IS ENOUGH FOR 6 X 6
BOTH BEING STATIONARY

yes that is definately enough for a 6x6 room more than enough.just that 1000 watt is enough for a 6x6.

1400 is ok...youll be pushing it trying to use a whole 6x6 and keep 50watts per square foot but use your setup natural light "footprint" and put the plants withing that area...they all will gwet light... but the ones closer to the hids will get more.... with my setup i spaced the three 1000s over the 6x9 foot space equally basicaLLY ELIMINATING shadows. the walls are mylared to refect light back to the plants.

USE MORE LIKE 5 X 5 SO I CAN MOVE AROUND AND MORE SMALLER PLANTS CLONES INTO FLOWER SO ABOUT 18 - 24 TALL IN FLOWER AND IN 1 GALLON POTS PROBABLY 8-10 PLANTS ?? :BagofWe ed:

read a bit closer friend.

I said with that much light there WOULDENT be any need to move them around...

Why couldnt you solve this issue with two 400s in a tube type Vented Air Shade? I suppose if you have enough exhaust you could even go as far as to use the 2x 1Ks? Light travels downward throught the entire lenth of the Reflector and downward into the canopy. They are actually really slick and from what iv'e seen proven. Iv'e never used them personally but they would be ideal for that space. They make em up to 60" in length with a socket(cordset) in each end. check em out at www.wormsway.com
part number MT160
Let me know what you guys think of these and what are the drawbacks if any?
Thanks and Peace to you all
