    Default Spider Farmer SF1000 OR?

    I'm a modest indoor grower using pots and soil. I never grow more than 3 plants at a time due to space restrictions.

    I am currently using the standard HIB plus ballast but am looking to go down the lED route, more for less heat than anything else. I don't use a tent as I have some space in a room I use.

    I'm a noob at this and I have read that the SF1000 would be enough to get me going with veg and flower.
    I would love the HLG but can't afford it yet. I'm assuming there aren't many lovers of the Mars Hydro, so am happy to take on any suggestions.

    Thanks for helping a newb.

    Hey! Many SF1000 grows in the growing section.

    What kind of watt did your old light use? In theory you want 100w/ plant for propper flower light. But ofc if you have 3 very small plants i guess 1 SF1000 would work.

    If not the SE3000 would be a very good contender if you need more power.

    I love the sf1000 but i would never ask it to flower 3 plants. Thats not due to the quality of the light, but how it was engineered and its coverage area. Might do 2 under it, maybe. I choose to only do 1 under it. As V8 said the SF3000 is probably what youre looking for.


    Good lights though, whichever you choose.
