I am looking to put 2 lights in a 5ftx9ft tent. Maybe two Luxx 860w LED Pro XR or I have one ChilLED Growcraft X6 1000w and an easy option would be to purchase one more.

Luxx is 8 bar - Growcraft is 6 bar
Lux would be 38.2w per sqft - Growcraft would be 44.4w per sqft

Average PPFD – 971 µmol @ 24"



The downside of two Growcraft X6 would be 4 drivers and 4 power cords. And the drivers would need to be remotely mounted somewhere. But the PPFD numbers seem better besides the fact the Luxx can be kept 12in from the canopy at full power which is good for a low ceiling tent.

If I put (6) 315w cmh in here I don't see a way I would be able to raise them up and down during the grow, so my question is would they be fine at a fixed height at the top during all times? The ceiling height is 6foot 11inch.
