    Question question about LED lights, SOG

    Greetings fellow growers, I'd like to try SOG grow with LED lights. The plan is to have two 120x120cm tents (or alternatively one large 300x150cm) and so far I have 2x 1500W Bestva LED lights (consuming 250W each).
    I can buy 2x 1000W King LED lights (consuming around 180W each). What would you recommend next for SOG grow, is this enough?

    (There will be CO2 supply.)

    Thanks for any advice

    How many plants you planning on having under each light?

    Around 12 plants in each tent. (so under 1000W King+1500W Bestva)

    In todays legal climate, forget about sog. Just not worth it. sog was developed in Canada back when hid lighting was much less efficient than it is now. At the time, Canadian penalties for 500+ plants, 1st offence, was a fine. 2nd offence was a bigger fine and 3rd offence was custodial.

    The only advantage sog has now that lights are better is that vegging takes less time. Done well, all styles and systems of growing yield about the same per harvest.

    With good logistics, a low plant number photo grow can give 3 harvests a year. In theory, a sog can give up to 6 harvests a year but why take the risk? Use twice as much space and lighting and keep the plant numbers to 10 or less.
