I'm confused about LED Watts per sqft. I got this info here from: https://www.ilovegrowingmarijuana.com/5-tips-buying-led-lights/
It says that 128 watts are enough for 2 plants in 2x2 sqft, but I've seen people recommending from 500 to 1000 watts.
Am I calculating this wrong?
1′ x 1′: 32 watts
2′ x 2′: 128 watts
3′ x 3′: 288 watts
4′ x 4′: 512 watts
5′ x 5′: 800 watts
6′ x 6′: 1152 watts
Estimation Based on 1 square foot per plant
# of Plants Square Feet Recommended LED Wattage
1 1 32
2 2 64
4 4 128
6 6 192
8 8 256
10 10 320
