If i didn’t build my own lighting rigs i’d go with a Solsheet X before any of those mass produced blurple panels 
btw he’s offering free shipping just now too.

Thanks for everyones responses. You guys just basically confirmed my suspicions. A little proper planning would of helped avoid all this.

My opinion is it will be a waste of money, especially if you plan to replace it later down the road. I’ve been there, done that. Bought a $300 blurple lights when I first started growing. Needed more light, so I bought a second. It didnt increase yields or quality at all. So I went out and built me a $500 DIY Cree COB light. The price has come way down since then. If I would have saved my original $600 and just got the COB light, it would have been cheaper.

I would order a qb from alibaba or diy one. I didn’t see where your at, but in the states qb 120 or 132 will give you 250-300 watts around you budget diy. It’s really easy to do and I can help or there are many more experienced than me at this. There is a alibaba review on Grasscity and a qb 120 thread to help you decide for yourself and not just my word. I do run the 120 and the 132. They’re in a 5x5 tent. Those Mars lights and blurples are pretty much junk. Cmh, cobs, or qb boards and strips.

Stole the words right outta my keyboard. Also look up the ViparSpectra 600w with the veg and bloom switches on Amazon Canada or whatever. I pulled a half pound from one plant with that light.
