What's new

Dialing in my wattage (QB96 + strips)

I am back around here after a hiatus involving changing computers and struggling with horrible russet hemp mites. Now that pests are finally dead, the plant I have in flower is really moving along quickly. I just want to make sure I am aiming for the right wattage right now. I have a chamber that is basically 2x2 with a large overhead like an oversized locker. My QB96 is now running at 90W and the Samsung A strips around the sides are running at 60W now. That gives me 22.5WPSF overhead and about 37.5 WPSF total. The QB96V2 is currently about 20 inches from the tops and this is not easy to adjust any higher. The side lights are very close but are running under their default rating anyway so there's definitely no risk of side-light burns.

Here's are pictures of it so you can see what's going on and let me know if you think I need to increase the wattage or if I am good as-is.
