@Pondello none of the lights on your list will cover the entire 3x5 footprint? So yo need to plan for a second light when the money becomes available. I like the Mars Hydro TS1000 as 2 of them would be good in a 3x5 space. You should ask @MarshydroTina what she thinks.

I run 2 of these in that size space. Best advice would be to get one as MoG suggested and add another down the line. They can be daisy chained together for ease

I am not too much an expert on lights, but the T5 lights, pretty cheap, i got a double 4 x 55watt for 110$AU on ebay. 6400k veg and 2700k bloom

@Mañ'O'Green @HighnDry You confirmed what I was thinking, In fact @MarshydroTina had said something to another user that I had read...that got me thinking. Thinking I may take your advice and go with the Mars Hydro TS1000 , should be enough for veg ya think? Then buy another in a month for flower.

Sounds like a good plan to me

Don't forget the discount code AFN!

I think you will be happy with that choice. True 300 watts with good spectrum, dimmable

Agree, 2 units TS 1000 lights are a good choice, the total 300w, and dimming daisy chain.

Can the ts-600 (no dimmer) be daisy chained to the ts-1000 or would I just use separate outlet.
