    Default Optic 8+ , hlg 550 or timber grow redwood ?

    Hello fellow growers , new indoor grower here starting up a new tent a 4x4 or most likely a 5x5 will be my footprint and I want the best light a can buy already assembled , I will build my own for my next project

    My goal is to produce the highest quality buds I can and am looking for info on what light to go with. Cost takes a back seat to quality rt now bcuz I’m buying and not building so I need all the help I can get to produce some top shelf smoke (I’m in Cali so the completion is stiff) any and all help is greatly appreciated

    I have kinda narrowed it down to those 3 light setups , and am considering a perpetual harvest with a flower tent and veg tent , flower being 5x5 and veg 2x4


    Or if have another light that u feel would get me better quality smoke I’m all ears , ty

    Im leaning towards hlg also out of those 3.

    Those kits do work out cheaper Trex but OP wants assembled and certified light.
