What spectrum rage bulbs are you using? I use T5's for about the first 3 weeks and then kick on the HPS lights. My tent is 4x8 and I use 2ea 600 watt HPS and 2ea 8-bulb T5's. First grow with that set up yielded just short of 2 pounds.

whatsup screw, i've changed things up and am currently 2 t12's that are daylight spectrum, 600 watt hps(plantmax) and 2 75watt argo MH's. my area is about 6x6x8 but i am currently only using about 5x2x9 for 8 trees.
