Lighting Questions regarding daisy chaining

Yes, I would put them in a 4x6 config in the middle of your tent. Have 6 RDWC buckets with decent pumps (around 6l/min per bucket) and grow 6 plants with FIM, SCROG, LST. Then you have enough room to work around them, they can grow a bit wider and you have enough light four every plant (one lamp per plant).

Wow one light per plant I was planning to try and grow atleast twice that many plants feeling so unprepared now

And im 100% using soil

I don't have a hydro system i'm doing a happy frog soil mix in 3 gallon fabric pots I was planning on doing at least 10 plants

Even in soil I would try to grow wider with fewer plants. I think I would get around 150 gram per plant under one of those lights.

Is that the same as a lux meter? Thank you for the help im using (6) 2000 watt xeccon cannalights in an 8x8 tent, is it possible that it will be too much light when starting my seeds and for young seedlings?

Def. Not the same as lux. Lux and foot candles are measures of visible light for us. Plants utilize photons. PAR/PPFD/micromol are all measures of the photons.
You can kind of feel photons. They can feel warm, near sensation to infra red.
You can get cheap ones for up to $100.
Very much worth it.

I thought they were good ligjts at 100 bucks each maybe I should have spent more

You get what you pay for applies to LED all day long. They aren't bad lights for the money. Just get through the hype. And figure out exactly what they put out and adjust your grow from there.

be careful daisy chaining led lights, if they are made in china the cords will not be right gauge and last light will melt the cord.
