1st off I'm veryso I may not make sense with this but oh well
. I've been doing some stoner thinking my room is 5 x 5 that's 25 sq ft I had 4 Autocobs @ 60 watts and a Timber 400 VS for a total of 640 watts that's 25.6 watts per sq ft. I replace the Timber with 4 more Autocobs and in doing so my wattage in the room went from the 640 with the Timber down to 480 with the 8 Autocobs 160 watts less and down from 25.6 watts per sq ft to 19.2 per sq ft. Here's where my stoner thinking comes in. Ok instead of doing the watts per sq ft being stoned I took the number of plants under the 480 watts and divided it. So I have 8 plants under 480 watts that equal outs to 60 watts per plant. Is there a formula for watts per plant instead of watts per sq ft or am I
@BigSm0
That’s basically what most of us have come to. 1 light covers a small to medium sized plant. The benefit is when there are multiple lights and plants since they overlap and that helps light larger plants. There is a huge savings by being able to adjust each light that really weighs in on these numbers.

Delivery is coming tomorrow, I’m tracking it every hour and there Is a lot of parts. Even taking the day from work! Going to be a great day
For sure, but surrounding the plant is other cobs. That’s really making it happen. If you want to double the light per plant all you need to do is drop the cobs between 6-10” but I’d leave them where they are at. You’re doing excellent.

Thanks lunarman...QED !!!...btw, I know how you feel, as a newey, I am never sure that a post will not unleash a barrage of abuse (as happens on so many web-sites)...happily, cobshop.net is civillised
Cheers...David
