It really depends on your budget. If it were me I would want to use an FC8000 in there with your FC4800. Even better would he 2 more FC4800’s. 1080 watts of light will give you 30 watts per square foot which is a good amount of light. I personally love the FC series lights and run an FC 6500 and FC 8000. That said, there are many light manufacturers that produce great lights.

@Treematt420 . look into medicgrow grow lights. They are really good and their budget friendly… They have a feature sun up an sun down on their lights mad kool… I have a sun-2 350 watt. Great for 3x3… They have bigger ones
i have the mars fce-8000 and love it and so do the plants.
went with the fce series instead of the fc series because the fce produces a bit more far red that helps in budding / flowering.
if you can catch a special / sale you get a hell of a bang for your buck.
i also see them used on facebook market place and ebay. if you have time to shop for them there are good deals to be had.
They have a KILLER sale on the FCE 4800 right now, it’s like 307 USD.
You’re not gonna touch anything that close to 500watts, for that cheap. Nothing worth talking about IMO anyway
