300w galaxies only actually make 140 real wt at best so two of them youll have 280 at best.
the 600w panel only makes 225 real watts in reality so at the least, youll need two of those.
one lamp on its own wont have the spread,its a struggle with two tbh.
im currently trying two new 200real watt led panels in a 75x75x160 tent,even there the spread from hanging them 20" up is quite narrow and luckily suits my size tent and the two plants under them
this has been my main led problem,to get good coverage its spend more dorrars time,bigger pabels,but then for the cost of those bigger panels you can get bulb n decent filter n fan and easily get coverage you need.
sorry for ramble,,purple mayascula,two week jarred bzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
