Lighting Question

[Pot-Head]

I have a 90 watt LED UFO grow light, how many plants do you think that can support? its supposed to match a 400 watt hps but i have my doubts....

The problem is it doesnt have the foot print to support alot of plants.it will light a 2x2 area grow 2 nice plants.

thanks for the response, it sounds like you have experience with LEDs

Yes, 2 foot by 2 foot is perfect, I use two per one 2 foot by 4 foot tent.

2 plants per light is not much, but for approx 100 total watts of draw, it ain't too shabby!

Oh, and all that stuff about them equaling a 400 watt gas discharge system is BS, just marketing hype.

I saw an ad once that claimed a 90 watt UFO could cover 100 square feet!

Needless to say, I got a good laugh from that one!
