Is this light good enough for 3 tubs stacked?

6500k yessir.

Maybe put it some distance away from the tubs so it can hit all the surfaces.

If you feel like splurging I use the 4foot 6500k 5200lm led lights vertically.



Idk what that 10-> 75 is about lol. Maybe they mean because it's led it draws less watts but is equivalent to 75.

Thanks for the quick reply. I know that 6500k is the right spectrum, I was worried about the lumen output. It should be fine placed like 1 meter above the tubs correct?

No problemo :coffee:

I cannot give you a precise answer on lumens, the consensus is that the k matters much more than the lm so I wouldn't sweat it.

Any distance is fine, just if you're stacking them the bottom one will not have the full benefit, you'll be able to visually see where the light is able to penetrate to on the tubs and go from there.

I had only horizontal lights for a long time and a while ago now do both horizontal and vertical for more light penetration as it helps in fruit formation.

But if you're in a hurry, and really got to go
If you're in a hurry, might have to find out slow
That it's one thing to try and another to fly
You get there quicker just a step at a time
It's one thing to bark, another to bite
The show ain't over till you pack up at night

As Filthy said, the spectrum matters more than the output. As long as all of the surface is covered in light, the fruit will know which way to grow.
